That size is what's necessary in order to hold at least the last hour's
worth of data. Here's a time-series plot of the age of the oldest
product in one of our queues from "ldmadmin plotmetrics -b 20210925":
steve...
cool :)
so it was probably you somewhere in the dark recesses of my old memory
many years ago that said something about keeping an hour's worth of data
in the queue :)
I just do noaaport, and don't have the massive huge conduit feed you
guys do, so I won't need that much... *whew* :)
so a tier 1 noaaport upstream feed should keep around an hour's of
data.. and that hour of data will increase on or around december 1st
when the super res is added...
but..
a feed that uses conduit would obviously need a much larger queue...
especially if he or she is an upstream source... :)
thanks steve.. :)
cheers,
