In fact, I am not using cloudant, just a self hosted couchdb server, and
a standalone workstation that starts its own replication, always with
couchdb 1.2, or 1.3.
I just added the link because it is the only one close to my problem I
found on the web.
So this checkpoint_interval is not possible to change wiht plain couchdb
server ?
And what this checkpoint is for ?
Thanks for your help,
Franck
PS: I have to check but one of the workstation was running Couchdb 1.3.1
on a macintosh, and the requests where every 30 seconds, and with a
simple HEAD, not a GET.

Hi,
The checkpoint interval is now configurable on Cloudant (as of a few
days ago) as a consequence of either your report or another user. Just
add "checkpoint_interval": <number> to your _replicate request. If
your replication is started by CouchDB then this option will not
currently work.

Hello list,
I didn't find the answer to the following questions using Google :
Why does Couchdb send a GET request to the database every 5 seconds while
replicating continuously ? Doesn't the replicator use the _change API (with
heartbeat functionality) anyway ? And if there is a need to poll aserver
alive, 5 seconds seem very often to me.
Plus, it seems it adds some fee issues in some cases :

I don't have the issue above yet, but in the case of an application where
clients can replicate so that they can run offline, this would result in a
loot of requests. Is there a way to avoid this ? To make it less often ?
Thank you for your help,
