Hi,

We (DBAs) assume this is just a heads up for us right? We do appreciate it! :-)
If you don't mind, once you are ready to run it, please update https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments so everyone is aware.

Thanks!

Should just be a jfdi one this.

enwiki has 4109... I can't imagine many wikis having many more rows to run

Mentioned in SAL (#wikimedia-operations) [2017-07-19T12:40:12Z] <Reedy> running foreachwiki updateRestrictions.php T166184

42634455 pages on enwiki, 4109 page_restrictions != "" pages.

Batch increased ten fold in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/366289

TBH, I think the code should just be doing just be doing a where page_restrictions != "" and a limit of the batch size

Script is pretty slow, and I can't really see any reason for it to be quite so conservative.

It's somewhere halfway through enwiki, but it's been running for 5 hours :(

It's going a lot faster now on those other wikis
