I see what you mean.. I can almost see a solution involving using create_expire 
and expire_func to trigger a re-submit when the local cache expires, but that 
may cause the opposite problem.  This would mean that a record would be sent 
the first time it was seen and then at most once again N minutes after that.  
If N minutes after that is 00:03 the entry would be logged on the following day 
even if it was not seen yet.  I suppose if the value in the cache table was the 
network_time of the last time seen that could used to fill in the HostInfo 
record.
