Big site, in the range 50-500 Mb, requires 3-5 days and half a dozen of fiw restart, because it give varius kind of error & memory/connection leaks (in fact can be fred, not fiw, who knows) > > The reasoning behind this is that the more frequently a site's data is > updated, the less need for very deep insertions, as much of the data > will be unchanged from one insert to the next, therefore a certain > amount of redundancy is involved, resulting in an automatic > "reinforcement" of the data within the network. > > Less frequently inserted data, on the other hand, basically only gets > one chance to "take", and will benefit from the deeper insertion (God, > this sounds dirty, doesn't it?), distributing the data as far as > possible into the network initially, helping it to later disseminate to > other nodes more easily. > > Of course, there are other factors to consider as well.
