The connection code was changed in 3.1.6 and should handle + timeouts and unresponsive servers better. See the release notes for a + whole pile of more fixes. <http://www.htdig.org/RELEASE.html> ... Now I've quantified the time lost waiting on unresponsive servers and concluded the upgrade may cut 5 or 6 hours off my elapsed dig time if it saves 9 or 10 minutes on every unresponsive server. Trouble is that I'm not sysadmin, I look after htdig as an application. 3.1.6 was being held off to await a change of hardware but this may be the lever I need to get 3.1.6 without waiting for the (delayed) hardware change 8-) Ta. regards, Malcolm.
