GET is only for the chart api, the visualization api is not the same case (with a couple exceptions that use the chart api) http://code.google.com/apis/visualization/documentation/gall...

Wow, I'm honored by all the feedback, Thanks! Pretty psyched everything is still responsive under the load too. The dates are pretty lame, luckily looks like Wikipedia removed all the links to dates so when I run against the latest data set

That was actually the original idea but the CPU behind it (requires a lot of ram and multiple systems the way I worked it) was too expensive to swing by the wife for a goof off project ;)

Jewish -(redirect)-> Jews -> Adolf Hitler. Both are 3 but December is first in alphabetical so it was the first one recorded.

would be very helpful actually... especially since the data is very old and you sometimes have to look at the revision history.

Definitely, it was actually pretty simple once I figured out what I was going to do. I started from the link graph put together by Henry Haselgrove ( http://users.on.net/~henry/home/wikipedia.htm ) that I found when looking through the EC2

We have a large number of queues with small number of workers.

From my personal experience with these, Hazelcast seems to be better suited for something like a single worker queue... We had issues when we had thousands of distributed queues on different systems. We ended up going with Terracotta (whic

"Every community deteriorates over time" - I hate these kind of statements made by every community as it grows and the "older" generations feel that they come from an elitist or a superior, time of purity. Just related: http://xkcd.com/603

This is not unique to Javascript. To a Java programmer this behavior seems natural(octal literals lead with a 0) and not really worthy of a angry blog post.

It seems more of a DNS round robin thing. I did jump to think of China when I first saw the headline also.

I would really like to see Twisted vs Tornado Documentation. The performances are close enough that I don't think it should be a deciding factor in which of these to use. Albeit performace is always an important metric that should be watc

I worry when people do benchmarks like this. People ignore the context that half the post is about and picks out the 3 lines where X performs better then Y. The Y crowd dislikes this so jumps at the article attacking it (eventually degrad
