I'm not sure if there's an import or some mass editing going on right
now, but the minutely diffs are running between 100 and 200KB of
gzipped data.  I've noticed that my server is having trouble keeping
up with that rate of data.  It simply takes more than a minute to
import that much data and so it falls behind.  This is a dual CPU 3Ghz
Xeon w/ 8GB RAM and 4x 15K SAS drives.  I'm not sure if the solution
is to throw more hardware at it, or if there are tuning issues with
the TRAPI code since the database has grown so much since it was
written.
