[02:27:34] <Nemo_bis>	 bianjiang: are you still getting fatals or "only" invalid XML from the API?
[02:30:34] <Nemo_bis>	 Jasper_Deng_away: how does it compare with a petabox? (I know nothing about such stuff)
[02:30:44] <bianjiang>	 not always, but sometimes we still get response like <?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?><api><query><recentchanges><rc type=\"edit\" ns=\"0\" title=\"Page\" rcid=\"527710117\" pageid=\"0\" revid=\"0\" 5::pageId=\"2502457\" old_revi    d=\"512273\" user=\"Article Feedback V5\" oldlen=\"4854\" newlen=\"4859\" comment=\"\" timestamp=\"1970-01-01T00:00:01Z\" /></recentchanges></query></api>
[02:30:52] <Jasper_Deng>	 Nemo_bis: ?
[02:31:09] <Jasper_Deng>	 But like 15 of those would replace all 400+ of WMF servers
[02:31:48] <bianjiang>	 Nemo_bis The part " 5::pageId=\"2502457\" " is invalid XML
[02:34:18] <Nemo_bis>	 bianjiang: yes they know
[02:34:48] <Nemo_bis>	 Jasper_Deng: I mean http://archive.org/web/petabox.php
[02:34:59] <Jasper_Deng>	 Nemo_bis: definitely
[02:35:06] <Jasper_Deng>	 and in far less space
[02:35:09] <Nemo_bis>	 Jasper_Deng: definitely what??
[02:35:24] <bianjiang>	 I'm just want to know if any engineer is helping on fixing that.. or could anyone update the bug entry about the progress?
[02:35:40] <Jasper_Deng>	 Nemo_bis: the server I mentioned would definitely be better
[02:36:15] <Jasper_Deng>	 the main part is the high bandwidth
[02:36:18] <Jasper_Deng>	 and CPU count
[02:36:36] <Jasper_Deng_away>	 brb
[02:36:53] <Nemo_bis>	 Jasper_Deng_away: "better" doesn't mean much
[02:37:10] <Nemo_bis>	 I suppose they have different aims?
[02:38:27] <bianjiang>	 Nemo_bis: do you happen to know any update?
[02:39:19] <Nemo_bis>	 no
[02:40:00] <Nemo_bis>	 well, this was merged 3 h ago https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/23623/
[02:41:14] <bianjiang>	 interesting. it looks to me a fix for the bug
[02:42:20] <bianjiang>	 Is "Matthias Mullie" the correct nickname of the engineer creating that fix? I think I just want to get a confirmation.
[02:42:50] <Jasper_Deng>	 Nemo_bis: I believe the WMF would do better with only a few of these servers
[02:43:13] <Jasper_Deng>	 because WMF also must keep a large MySQL instance
[03:13:11] <Nemo_bis>	 bianjiang: yes
