    CUK RSS latency

    Not sure if this should go into the Tech section, but anyone can help with the latency of receiving new thread notices using RSS on Outlook 2007?

    I subscribe to loads of blogs and have found Outlook RSS to be a convenient aggregator but is there any way of improving CUK's performance? Some new CUK threads appear to take hours before notification. Is there something I need to set or is it an unrealistic expectation? My standard Send/Receive poll is 5 mins.

    Many thanks in advance.

    Close the board for posting during business hours.

    That's the only way to be sure.

      Awww, c'mon Alexei - it's the only thing keeping me sane here!

      I've had a tediously, boring day C# coding on my simplistic plan b, it wasn't very productive, and missed all the good ground floor entry on the CUK threads because of this RSS latency.

      Now, you're a clever chappie with your awesome majestic SEO neural net, have you any clue about my predicament?

              Still not in the RSS feed - was expecting it to appear immediately, allowing me to question your sanity. Bah.

              Will have a quick look at control panel.

                Hey hyperD - should work a bit better now. Back end setting for RSS to be cached for 60 mins, have dropped this to 1 as this is not so busy a board that it should cause problems. I hope...

                Thanks for your help Alex

                  The reason I did not help much was because having rare updates to RSS feed puts less pressure on server, and also increases your visit counts - now hyperD is as good as lost

                  Also I was busy drinking beer...

                    There's a first, AtW admitting ignorance rather than demonstrating it.
