It can be parallelized, starting rendering the thumb while the file hasn't been completely uploaded yet (most formats will allow to do that). That'd need special software, the easiest would be to use a different domain on Special:Upload action to the resizing cluster. These changes are always an annoyance but it would ease many bugs: 10976, 16751, 18202, upload bar, non-NFS backend... _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
