Notes
This is a regression and it started around 12 September. In the last 7 days, the above two errors each happened 3,500 times since 12 September. Whereas similar issues only happened <130 times in the 23 days before that.
I suspect something was changed or deployed around that time that made the ParserOutput object significantly bigger, causing it to exceed the threshold of what we can store in Memcached.
- Impact: Slower edits - stash is unable to function, requiring edit to be parsed a second time between auto-stash and save.
- Impact: Slower views - parser output may need to come from sql-parsercache fallback instead of memcached.
