[18:06:41] <sumanah> Question re: PyPI download stats, as measured by BigQuery via https://packaging.python.org/guides/analyzing-pypi-package-downloads/

[18:06:51] <sumanah> someone asked me:

[18:06:53] <sumanah> "

[18:06:53] <sumanah> One question I wanted to ask is what caused the big jump in PyPI download numbers in August 2018? For example In July 2017 cx_Oracle was downloaded 65K times, but that jumped to 232K in August. Other packages saw similar jumps. Was there any reason?"

[18:07:32] <sumanah> aha

[18:20:42] <sumanah> ok filed https://github.com/pypa/packaging.python.org/issues/632

[18:33:29] <sumanah> ngoldbaum: any speculations?

[18:39:03] <ngoldbaum> no idea

[18:39:15] <ngoldbaum> small number statistics/

[18:47:52] <sumanah> yeah

[19:02:45] <toad_polo> ngoldbaum: Do the spikes happen at predictable times? Could be cache expirations in some CI systems or something.
