It does serve a purpose. My Vantage Pro is in my yard and weewx is in my
basement, but my webpage to display it is hosted in a datacenter somewhere
far, far away, so I have to sftp it there. A full batch of data uploading
typically takes almost a minute to go, besides the overhead, connection
time, etc. and the time weewx takes to do all it's processing. Since that
happens every 5 minutes, it's not impossible for my 5-minute workload to
overlap the next 5 minute interval.  If I can reduce it, then everything
works better.
