- Job queue - Note, the api can still return an estimate (emphasis on estimate, its known to be wildly inaccurate in some cases). Currently it shows enwikipedia has about 30000 jobs. Bawolff (talk) 15:36, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
- Sure, but it's not possible to see trends (unless one is very careful and notes down the numbers, of course). Ganglia was made public five minutes ago, here's the graph again.[1] :-) --Nemo 20:53, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks Nemo. Welcome back, Ganglia!
- The Ganglia data would be a little more useful if it showed the maximum and minimum values for each aggregated period, instead of only the value for an arbitrary point in time in each hour/day/week/month.
- It would be more helpful for a log to show also the timestamp of the oldest job as well as the number of entries over time. Better still, a breakdown for each type of job – something like: I don't think the job tables are replicated to the toolserver, so Ganglia would probably be the easiest way to make this information available.
SELECT job_cmd, COUNT(*), MIN(job_timestamp) FROM job GROUP BY job_cmd;

- got to say its really nice to see ganglia back.Bawolff (talk) 23:38, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
- Richardguk, I agree with you but we don't even have a ganglia graph for all wikis (gerrit:37441)... Maybe you could propose some patch to ganglia, or to gdash [2] (where we have [3])? --Nemo 10:07, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
