Steve,
Ideally, with Schedules Direct, you would never use any --refresh
option. The --refresh option downloads each specified day in separate
requests.
A /much/ better approach is to use --dd-grab-all to grab all (14+ days)
of the available data from Schedules Direct in a single request. This
ensures you have the most-current data for every day (not just those
days you would have specified with --refresh option). The only down
side is that you can't do this with an underpowered master backend/MySQL
server system. For details see:
