@jmatazzoni Can you confirm whether ORES filters would be omitted just on the Watchlist page, or from all RCFilters displays? If the latter, this seems dire and perhaps it's better to delay the RCFilters deployment?

Just Watchlist. That's the interesting (and promising, I think) thing: there is a huge difference between performance on RC and WL.

@Catrope asked a good question: what is the load time difference when you turn OFF the New Filters beta? So I tried it, and it is similarly slow. What I did:

• Turn off the New Filters
• On the Watchlist Preferences page
  • select 250 and 30 days (as in the test above)
  • Select "May have problems" as a threshold and select "Highlight likely problem edits..." and "Show only likely problem edits"
• Load the Watchlist page.

With those settings, which are roughly equivalent to the test protocol above, I got a load time of 55 seconds. Also roughly similar. So where does that put us? @Catrope, did we do anything that would change how the Watchlist search works with the beta off? I.e., did we break this, or has it always been this way? @Halfak, any thoughts?

(1) I checked trwiki, ruwiki, nlwiki, plwiki, and hewiki with the settings displayed in the ticket. The most interesting finding is that ruwiki consistently shows ~16 sec for Watchlist (the RC page load time looks normal). hewiki is slightly slower than the other wikis from the list: ~3.5s for Watchlist.

(2) per @jmatazzoni comment above re-checked on enwiki - without new filters but with 'Hide probably good edits':
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AWatchlist&days=30&hidecategorization=1&hideWikibase=1&hidenondamaging=1&namespace=&action=submit gives the timeout error:
[WdVimwpAAEQAAC67vm8AAAAI] 2017-10-04 22:38:15: Fatal exception of type "Wikimedia\Rdbms\DBQueryTimeoutError"

(3) @Catrope can we monitor different wikis performance data separately?

I have a feedback concerning Wikidata filters, where a Watchlist can't be loaded.

I have a new feedback from an English Wikipedia user.
