Just ran into this when importing some sample WMF wiki into my test one. I think the proper behaviour should be that data should be loaded, they may be not accessible or something.

saper added a comment to T145534: maps - tilerator notification seems stuck on sorting files.

If node is hanging on I/O, external process execution etc. this might indicate problems with asynchronous I/O and exhaustion of the thread pool. A workaround could be to increase node thread pool size with "env UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE=128 node" when starting node (it's an env variable).

    @TheDJ Lucky you, at least you can do it yourself; and a prolonged code review is merely a nuisance when you have +2

    saper added a comment to T58252: IPv6 range blocks should be limited to /48s, not /19s.

    I am not sure that CU viewfinder and maximum block ranges should be necessarily in sync. If CheckUsers can't easily see a wider range, they won't event know if the current maximum block range is sufficient. But this is mostly theoretical as those ranges are pretty large and CheckUser queries should not cause performance issues.

    Looks like a perfect candidate to be a reason.

    @Yaron_Koren I have reviewed Paladox patches' and this thing is going beyond their scope.

    saper added a comment to T117856: composer/installers and wfLoadSkin do not assume the same path ('skin-name' vs. 'SkinName').

    Thanks for quick merge and discussion. I actually think that even a better fix is possible - for skins Composer installer should just read the value added to "ValidSkinNames":

    @Bawolff can you have a look at https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/260173/ ? It is not fully ready yet (it does not fix T120216 yet), but it should migrate existing 1.24 data (it can even run on 1.24).
