--- Comment #15 from Brion Vibber <br...@wikimedia.org> 2008-12-15 19:06:24 UTC --- Well, they can pull 50 or 500 diffs in individual requests if they like already. :) Without wikidiff2 present, diff generation is hideously slow, however, making lots of hits a bit of a danger to begin with. This is why for instance the RSS feed attempts to avoid doing diffs it thinks might be too big or slow (though it doesn't do a very good job of this iirc). In short: I hate diffs, they suck. ;) Considerations: * Do we really need to request multiple diffs at once, or do we just want an API point for requesting *a* diff in a consistent fashion? * Do we care that the result is going to be a big wad of HTML which will change depending on the version of MediaWiki, the diff backend installed, etc? * What's the actual intention of fetching the diff anyway? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
