I've seen many CI environments take forever because they download Django from pypi and forget to cache it. Downloads != usage.

- icebraining 10y agoBut if that CI server creates a VM or container and uses runserver, you have the same problem.
- JshWright 10y agoHow so? The analytics service would dedup the IP address.
- quesera 10y agoVery large businesses with dozens of Django installs could be behind a single IP address.

- JshWright 10y agoThat may not be a problem if all you care about is the number of organizations.
- icebraining 10y agoSure, hence the same problems of downloading, not more.
- JshWright 10y agoI still don't follow... If they want to track runserver calls, they presumably realize that there will be frequent runserver calls in the context of developing/testing an application. I would think they would care more about the number of unique IP addresses those runserver 'runs' are coming from.
- andreareina 10y agoThe exact scale would be incorrect, but since counting errors can be expected to happen the same way for other packages in the same space, it's still enough to see relative popularity, growth in usage, etc.
