First hour, quick news

  1. TikiFestFosdem2026 will happen January 31st & February 1st. Shall we have a TikiFest?
  2. We have reached MR 9000Question milestone! Gitlab has got new interface.
  3. New label proposal for already merged and backported MRs on master by : BackportedQuestion
  4. Could we move Master to the end of the demo.tiki.org selection? I feel people who are curious about Tiki will select the first choice and this should be a stable (LTS?) version.
  5. Maybe node/npm should be added to tiki-check?
  6. Regressions in master (e.g., we lost the ability to view wiki page source, Markdown broken, ...)
  7. Added pdf.css (pushed down to 27.x from !9062Question

Victor introduced a new "field" filter to the plugin list to reduce the number of fields thatr should be scanned.

This one is broken https://dev.tiki.org/tiki-pagehistory.php?page=Web-based+source+code+editor&source=0Question (probably the double encoded &amp is the culprit)

I doubt 10% perf improvement would fix the problem

Ha! Looks like the {wishes} plugin alias has been converted to use plugin list, was that me?
I definitely thought about it a lot!

PHP 8.3 / 8.4 will improve things much more than 10% (according to other benchmarks)
jo
Jonny Bradley (jonnybradley)
00:46:51
I see it's not using elastic any more, when did that change?
It's using MySQL (with MySQL as the backup index 😉)
gu
Guest: mose
00:47:27
I think something changed at some point that fucked up everything
gu
Guest: mose
00:48:21
if we knew when, it would help
gu
Guest: mose
00:49:01
can we find in graphs the origin of the issue ?
gu
Guest: mose
00:49:08
temporal oprgin
gu

00:49:36
ok, found it

swap graph changes radically
gu
Guest: mose
00:51:18
nah it's not conclusive
jo
john.livingston
00:51:32
where do you find the swap graph?
jo
john.livingston
00:51:40
i cant find it on zabbix
jo
Jonny Bradley (jonnybradley)
00:54:08
Is the database storage ok?
There are over 20 indexes in it (but only using one)
jo
john.livingston
00:54:13
Just saw your comment Jonny... Maybe this is something we should investiable (the use of mysql instead of elasticsearch)
