And why, you may ask, is there a connection between dinstall and the web updates? The web updates are done after a successful run of dinstall and after the archive is mirrored. This is keep the web and archive as synchronized as possible and to keep the load on master reasonable. Previously, we often got ridiculous loads because there was no coordination between the large cron jobs that were often run. Jay Treacy
