(e.g requires more thought on wbc_entity_usage design) or is it disabled in cawiki because it updated too fast? (so we just need to make the buildup slower?) I think most of the usages tracking are going to be static once it finish the first build-up?
It's going to be stable most of the time, but then (on big template/ module changes) it can very very quickly change a lot.
For cawiki: I've contacted them to fix the problem that caused this spike (https://ca.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=M%C3%B2dul_Discussi%C3%B3:Wikidata&oldid=18938979#Critical_performance_improvement), once that is fixed, we should be good to go ahead here.
In general, we will probably need to revisit T176273: Move the wbc_entity_usage table onto a dedicated DB shard here, especially for bigger wikis.
- Can we also count the recentchanges rows from wikidata on day granularity before/after deployments? I guess whatever it cost increase the wbc_entity_usage in cawiki, it is probably acceptable if recentchanges is getting smaller.
We can only weigh these up to a certain amount, as a spike on one table does not usually mean an equal reduction of activity on the other. As we can't yet stop recording the X/O usages, we have no idea what the actual effect will be, yet.
