First checkin Comment: As far as I know it's not used by Wikimedia's thumb servers. The thumb scaling cluster (which creates most thumbnails) is simply a set of servers behind a separate load balancer running the same MediaWiki as the main servers. The main server will redirect the request to the scalers when it sees that the thumbnail doesn't exist (404 handler). The scalers have access to the original and thumb storage and will fetch the original, scale it, and write it back out to the thumb store. If you think otherwise, could you explain how WebStore is being used? _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list mediawiki-coderev...@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
