Hi, I have a problem. Ive used the Feed API + Feed API node on a client side. What my solution does is aggregate a feed, and creates nodes from this feed. The usual use of this module i suppose.

But I have a problem, Ive set the cron to run every 5 minutes so that it should update fast, the feed is populated with rapidly updated content so it is crucial that these updates are reflected on the site just as fast.

But for some reason, the Feed API doesnt see that the feed has changed, i can look at the feed and see that there has been added content, but when i hit refresh or it is runned by cron it doesnt download the new feed items. Instead it just happens by "random" intervals. Sometimes new content can take up to 2 hours to be downloaded from the feed and other times 5 minutes.

Anyone know what the reason might by? I would really appreaciate some help. I have set the Feed API to get 75% of the cron executing time so it should have enough time to do its business.

I also don't understand how the FeedAPI cron works. I'd like it to process every 5 minutes. Right now it seems to range from 30 to 60 minutes.
