Ferdy Galema commented on NUTCH-1457:
-------------------------------------

There is a limited description of the Nutch2 DbUpdater here:
http://wiki.apache.org/nutch/Nutch2Crawling#DbUpdate

Basically all outlinks of the table are needed (they are outputted in the 
Mapper), so that they will be available as inlinks in the Reducer. They are 
needed to correctly update the Score for each row. This may or may not be 
important in some cases, but for a correct calculation of Score all 
rows+outlinks are needed.

My suggestion for this issue is to move some of the processing of the DbUpdater 
job to the Fetcher. Namely the updating of the fetchstatus and fetchtime. Then 
it is possible to run the DpUpdater job many times without pushing fetchtime 
far into the future. Slighly related, there should be an extra field to 
distinct between "when was this item fetched" and "when should it be fetched". 
Now both this information is stored in the single field "fetchtime".
