Anomie added a subscriber: Anomie. Anomie added a comment. The slowness in the module is due to the database query to fetch the list of used tags:
SELECT ct_tag, 0 AS hitcount FROM change_tag GROUP BY ct_tag ORDER BY ct_tag LIMIT 11; Strangely, increasing the limit seems to make it much faster. The query plans for the low-limit case versus the high-limit case look like: > explain SELECT ct_tag, 0 AS hitcount FROM change_tag GROUP BY ct_tag ORDER BY ct_tag LIMIT 101; +------+-------------+------------+-------+---------------+-------------------+---------+------+------+--------------------------+ | id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra | +------+-------------+------------+-------+---------------+-------------------+---------+------+------+--------------------------+ | 1 | SIMPLE | change_tag | range | NULL | change_tag_tag_id | 257 | NULL | 35 | Using index for group-by | +------+-------------+------------+-------+---------------+-------------------+---------+------+------+--------------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) > explain SELECT ct_tag, 0 AS hitcount FROM change_tag GROUP BY ct_tag ORDER BY ct_tag LIMIT 11; +------+-------------+------------+-------+---------------+-------------------+---------+------+----------+-------------+ | id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra | +------+-------------+------------+-------+---------------+-------------------+---------+------+----------+-------------+ | 1 | SIMPLE | change_tag | index | NULL | change_tag_tag_id | 272 | NULL | 31483031 | Using index | +------+-------------+------------+-------+---------------+-------------------+---------+------+----------+-------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) There's also another mode ( https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?format=json&action=query&list=tags&tgprop=displayname|hitcount&continue=) that does `COUNT(*) AS hitcount` instead, BTW. That one uses the slower plan in all cases. BTW, I note that the module only returns a 7 OAuth entries, although one of them (cid 93) accounts for 83% of the 31176994 rows in the change_tags table and the seven together account for almost 94%.
