Looking at our feed database, we seem to have about a few million feeds 
that claim to be PuSH enabled. We have not yet create subscriptions for all 
these feeds so some of them may not be valid, but I assume most are. This 
got me thinking as to what's a reasonable request rate to make to hubs for 
subscriptions and renewals? I see the google appspot hub defaults to a 
lease 5 days. A little over half of the use the google hub. Doing the math, 
this would imply a few hundred thousand requests per day just for renewals 
(assuming auto-refreshing goes away). Is there any cap to the allowable 
request rate?

Would it be necessary to set a specific user agent on the request or come 
from different IPs? I realize this is hub specific, just posting here as I 
assume most people read this list.

Thanks
