I notice that when scheduling NNTP updates via the task scheduler, only one newsgroup is updated each time the script is run. This means the minimum update interval for each group is effectively (the number of newsgroup imports defined) minutes.

So if you have, say, 30 forums, each synchronised to a newsgroup, each forum can only update once every 30 minutes, minimum.

Wouldn't it make more sense to update all the newsgroups on each run, and use a lock to make sure the next update can't start until the previous one has ended?

I know you can use a manual cron job to do this (which is what I've done) but it seems to make sense for this to be the normal behaviour?
