Dear FTP masters,

could dinstall be run more frequently, for example every hour?

Currently dinstall is run only once every 6 hours. This means that many 
operations are blocked for a long time. For instance uploading a -2 
version after a package has cleared the NEW queue.

Such long delays tend to ruin the development flow, especially of 
volunteers that happen to have just a couple of hours at their disposal. 
This is a well known source of frustration [1].

Given that a dinstall run generally takes only few minutes, it should be 
feasible to run dinstall at least hourly.

Regards,
