Thanks for taking it for a spin! I'm working on why this is slow now.

You may remember a carbon copy of this event from a year ago. https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/389922/june-2023-da...

If anyone wants their data back in a way they can use it, it's right here https://seqlite.puny.engineering

And I'd be remiss if I didn't point out that their trade dress is MIT licensed. https://stackoverflow.design

Have fun.

Nice post!

Yep, my process is similar. It goes...

  - decompress (users|posts)  
  - split into batches of 10,000  
  - xsltproc the batch into sql statements  
  - pipe the batches of statements into sqlite in parallel using flocks for coordination
On my M1 Max it takes about 40 minutes for the whole network. Then I compress each database with brotli which takes about 5 hours.

This site is on a Cloudflare R2 bucket because (and only because) they have free egress. While not datacenter sized some of these files are large. Just opening up your credit card to 10 cents a gigabyte will be a bad time anywhere else.

I mean fine, write an article that overweights recent events to weave a tale of the decline of Stack Exchange...but don't leave out the moderator strike, the data dump fiasco, or the CEO that simply doesn't get it. Jon Ericson's writing on the issue is much more informative. https://jlericson.com/
