That would complicate matters further though. 
Also as each new dump for some wiki takes a little longer 
this would mean lots of slack in the schedule and 
force servers to be idle part of the time.

I hate to distract Tomasz from optimizing the dump process,
so I'll postpone new feature requests, but an option to order 
gift wrappings for the dumps would be neat :-)
