--- Comment #8 from Matthew Flaschen <mflasc...@wikimedia.org> --- (In reply to Nemo from comment #7) > Hm, hackathon is approaching quickly, is this considered important for its > success or just a nice to have? Yes, it's important, and I will definitely be doing bug 61060 before the Zürich Hackathon. > Based on my latest personal experience with MWV > (<https://www.mediawiki.org/?diff=912744&oldid=889141>), I wonder if network > and file fetch is really the bottleneck or once we solve it we'll find worse > problems, like the 2 hours required for the initial puppet run in the first > "vagrant up". Yes, most of the time is used in downloading. For instance, generally most of the Puppet time is used for downloading the entire MediaWiki core git repository (with all history). That is one of the files I will be bundling with bug 61060. > Perhaps it's easier to use remote virtual servers instead?

Then the hackers only have to learn keys and ssh (which they have > anyway) and they can still use their local text editors and whatever via > their [[KIOslaves]] or equivalent if that's a problem. This is worth investigating/trying, but I won't be looking at it before Zürich. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
