Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.73
Severity: normal

Hi,

The maintainer reports (notably the "full" reports) quickly grows in
size (disk space used) and without any bounds.  At the moment, the
lintian.d.o has a complete size usage of ~1GB - half of that is "full
reports" - the second runner up is the uncompressed lintian.log (at
250MB), which will disappear soon.

Individual reports have exploded and the top 10 ranges from ~7.5 to
30MB in raw HTML size[1].  These pages are so painful to low that it
feels like the browser is about to croak on the load/pressure.  I
doubt anyone is reading these reports (I certainly would not at that
scale).

I think we need some better way to deal with these reports.  My best
idea to date is to extract the package reports into a separate report
page and just link to them from the maintainer pages.  However, that
will make the maintainer pages rather useless/boring on their own (but
at least they would probably be "loadable").

Thanks,
~Niels

Lintian's new dynamic website is now live. [1] The maintainer pages
appear on demand and take up no space whatsoever. Space questions are
limited to the PostgreSQL database, which occupies 100 GB but, in a
200 GB partition, has some space to grow. I believe this bug is no
longer relevant.

Closing this bug.

Kind regards,
