Fair enough
question, but really I have no idea. That was the "feedback" part of my
first message. You should pick a time that is at least several times the
refresh time (the time it takes GEMS to generate the results). Anything
less and GEMS spends all its time generating reports and no time posting
results. You can keep an eye on the poster to see if things are backing
up.
At the end of the
day Mike's five minute recommendation sounds reasonable, but really someone has
to try it on real data and post their findings. YRMV.

Ken, could you be
more specific with respect to the refresh time on the Results Server?
For example 3 minutes for 50 precincts, 2 minutes for 30 precincts,
etc.

Another
pointer. Do not set the "update time" in the Result Server to
below 5 minutes. You will get flak from the election official,
they want the results in realtime, but setting the "update time" to 1
minute will do nothing but drag down your system. This assumption of
course is based on larger accounts. If anyone in the devel team
wishes to dispute this fact, please feel free to post:)
Very recent
1.17s should be better in this regard. We'd love feedback on whether
this is actually the case.
