bug 29184 Adds background transcoding support. $wgEnableNiceBackgroundTranscodeJobs configuration option enables: * Global Timeout, don't let any transcode go on indefinitely * Growing target files, don't let transcodes not do any work for more than 10 seconds. * Enables us to set lower resource priority on transcodes to keep multi-threaded transcode boxes responsive for other tasks ( like monitoring transcodes ) TODO figure out a way to get exit status and PID for background tasks ( some notes in the header ) Comment: I just happened to notice this here, seems to go back further...I'm not sure why you need to introduce a global for the path to the maintenance directory. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
