Thanks. The 10GB value was used in our configuration. It is hard to
tell how long the index creation took as the output sailed by, but I
think it was more than a couple of hours.

Now it is showing these again:

  Done 274 in 136 @ 2.014706 per second - Rank 26 ETA (seconds): 2467.854004

Presumably this means it is now playing catchup relative to the
original download data?

How can I tell what date it has caught up to? (And thus get an idea of
when it is likely to finish?)

Is it catching up by downloading minutely diffs or using larger
intervals, then switching to minutely diffs when it is almost fully up
to date?

This phase still seems very disk intensive, will that settle down and
become much less demanding when it has eventually got up to date?
