Re: [marinedesign] Verifying big links databases: temporary solution.
Running via telnet or in the browser staggered mode the verify still seems to hang. Right now with 2050 links I am hanging at link 188 via telnet, and what's strange is that link 188 is actually a good link (tested it manually).

I recently tried the demo for the fluid dynamics search engine ( http://www.xav.com/scripts/search/ ) and it has an interesting routine where if it can't connect it drills down. So if a routine which is supposed to fetch 10 url's hangs, it then tries 5, 2, and finally 1 if it keeps failing. If the one fails, it then is put aside and it continues with the url after it and then builds back up to 10. I wonder if the same logic could be applied to the automated verify? Might be too time consuming though.

But the good news is that with the page by page browser verify I can skip the page that hangs and continue on.

Great mod! Thanks again!
