Bug #: 31081
Summary: $wgEnotifUseJobQ causes many unnecessary jobs to be
queued
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.17
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Email
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: tstarl...@wikimedia.org
Classification: Unclassified
With $wgEnotifUseJobQ enabled, a job is queued unconditionally, regardless of
whether any emails will be sent. The relevant logic for deciding who to send
emails to is implemented in actuallyNotifyOnPageChange(), which is common to
job execution and non-job email sending.
This is especially obvious with $wgEnotifWatchlist=false and
$wgEnotifUserTalk=true, as it is on enwiki. The page title is not checked to
see if it is a user talk page before the job is queued, so more than 90% of
queued jobs are no-ops.
