   Yep. good thoughts thanks... I recall it was packing that was the more   
   intensive, is that right?   
      
   Could you happily purge more often than pack?   
      
   The other question I had was regarding linking, is it better to link each time   
   packets are processed or do you think it's more of a nightly thing?   
      
   Thanks :)
