there is no 10gb limit, but it is the recommended bucket size if you
want to split up the file, according to my recent discussion with the
archive.org team, and they have been helping me optimize the storage.
the idea of mine is to make smaller blocks that can be fetched quickly
and that people for example reading an article could just load the
data needed to display would be availab le via json(p) or xml/text
from a file.
we can make the wikipedia in a read only mode hosted totallz on the
archive org without a database server by encoding the search binary
trees in json data stored also on archive org, the clients can perform
the searches themselves.
that is my current research on fosm.org and i hope it can apply to the
wikipedia as well.
