So we got some new search servers (thanks
Mark&Rob) and I have deployed
them today. As a consequence, the search limit is now re-raised to 500
and interwiki search is back on all wikis. I would still however like to
keep srmax on 50 for API because there seems to be quite a number of
broken bots and people experimenting...
Additionally, I've switched mwsuggest to lucene backend, so now the AJAX
suggestions are no longer alphabetical but ranked according to number of
links to them (and some CamelCase and such redirects are not shown).
This has been active on en.wp for a while, but now it's on all wikis.
If you see things broken please find me on IRC, or leave a message on my
en.wp talk page.
