I tried again circa 06:00 and had pretty good throughput until about 11:30
today (a US holiday), when it fell off a cliff again. My guess is severely
overloaded in some fashion, or very sensitive to transient load elsewhere.

Yes, I had to turn off that warning in Firefox, too.  Annoying.

All the Wiki links need to come through the secure server! That means a
re-write of every link. That would fix the current problem with doing
inter-wiki work, as interwiki links also come up http instead of https.

Obviously, links not to wikipedia/wikimedia should not be re-written, so
the external links go directly.

Is there anywhere that configuration and usage of secure is listed?

I really think this is a superb idea, but....
