Thunderstone Search Appliance Manual

Refresh

A Refresh walk behaves like a Refresh All walk, but it doesn't check every URL every walk. The Search Appliance pays attention to how often each URL changes, and schedules checking the URL less often if a URL isn't changed. When a Refresh walk starts, it only refreshes URLs that are scheduled for update at the start of the walk.

The idea is that if a profile is doing nightly walks and a URL hasn't changed in the last 6 months, it probably doesn't need checked EVERY night. It can be checked every 2nd night, every 3rd night, every 5th night, etc. as it continues to not change.
