Thread:Project:Support desk/ Mediawiki Massive CPU usage tied to SiteStats.php, DeferredUpdates.php, and ViewCountUpdate.php/reply (2)

This sounds like the errors I have, the server slows down to a crawl:

Thread:Project:Support desk/Mediawiki 1.22+ Causes two of my servers to hang indefinitely.

Are you using 1.22? 1.21 didn't give me the same headache.

Also, I noticed that the page view hit counter jumped by hundreds with each click. Maybe there is an loop in the code because I got to over 1500 hits in a few seconds. On two different servers so it I don't think I'm under any spam attack.
