Comment:

 Replying to [ticket:12566 karsten]:
 >  - Six hours may be too short for the front-end to consider its data
 stale.  Maybe 24 hours is more realistic.  After all, 24 hour old data are
 not wrong, it's just not as fresh as users would expect.  Maybe clients
 could display results and add a little warning that the data are not as
 fresh as usual.

 On second thought, six hours is not a bad number, and 12 or 24 hours are
 not obviously better.  Let's this unchanged.

 >  - I have no idea why downloading descriptors stalled in the first
 place.  My current idea is to add more log statements to track down what
 went wrong.

 It didn't happen again.  But now that error messages will be sent to the
 service operator, we'll detect the problem much faster if it ever happens
 again.
