Specifically because of this:
http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Template:Wikipedia%27s_sister_projects
The icons come from upload.wikimedia.org
Same issue other places as well, eg:
http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Hurricane_Celeste_%281972%29
which loads the acrobat.gif from upload.wikimedia.org
Version: unspecified
Severity: enhancement

Oh, that's smarter than I thought...
So, if the file is available on upload.beta, the it's served from there. If it isn't, it fails over to upload.wikimedia? Not bad.
Renaming bug and resetting priority to clarify the new goal :)
The ideal (something like):
We do have instant commons and the foreignApi backend file system of doom. So in theory all images are looked locally on beta cluster, then on beta commons and finally on the production commons.
When production goes down (like this morning) Beta Cluster can't get images that are hardcoded, eg the main page:
It still feels icky to depend on prod in any way.
