Backfilling

Some benchmarks of how log did it take to backfill data for Rolling Active Editor EEVS metric. The point is to have a ballpark estimate for our backfilling and make sure future code changes do not blow up these numbers.

Numbers will fluctuate depending on labs DB access but they should not diverge much from these.

We use as baseline our master branch on 2014-06-12 versus changes on this patchset: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/150475/

Labs db infrstructure ( labsdb1002 dewiki, commons, etc) was upgraded to maria db about the last week of July. All data is on an SSD now.
