Fair enough.  I've noticed some slowdowns with re-builds, but I
generally thought it best to get it over-with as quickly as
possible.

It's possible to turn off auto-synch, so that you can start the
re-build at the beginning of a quiet-time, if there is one.  I
guess if the system is in demand 24/7 you'll need something else
though.

Cheers,
