I cannot find any reference to it now, but somebody suggested the following solution to spread the load more evenly: 1. Move the cron job to cron.hourly. 2. Let the cron job keep track of when statistics were last reported. 3. If more than a week has elapsed since the last time statistics were reported, report statistics and update the time stamp.
This would spread the load over every hour of the week. Cheers //Johan (who'd like to see popcon in testing for other reasons) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
