Package: dictd
Version: 1.10.2-3
Severity: wishlist

Question (not seen in any FAQs): on my standalone laptop, I only make
a dict query once a week. Can I somehow not run the server all day, in
exchange for some delay upon query, in order to save on memory as seen
with top(1)?  pydict works fine that way for Chinese.

Is the only way
/etc/init.d/dictd start
dict bla
/etc/init.d/dictd stop?

Maybe README.inetd.gz is similar, but apparently it won't stop the
deamon after the query.

Anyway the docs should say what to do.
