Hi,
Thanks for getting back to me!
From: https://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification
skipHours A hint for aggregators telling them which hours they can skip. This element contains up to 24 <hour> sub-elements whose value is a number between 0 and 23, representing a time in GMT, when aggregators, if they support the feature, may not read the channel on hours listed in the <skipHours> element. The hour beginning at midnight is hour zero.
My server is solar powered off-grid and would be better not polled at night, and I’m asleep and not making updates either!
So I have set:
<skipHours><hour>0</hour><hour>1</hour><hour>2</hour><hour>3</hour><hour>4</hour><hour>5</hour><hour>6</hour<hour>7</hour><hour>22</hour><hour>23</hour></skipHours>

BTW, are you implementing If-Modified-Since (or If-None-Match)? I'm not seeing 304s for your client, even when RSS feed files are not changing. Rgds Damon |

Hi, Main RSS feed: https://www.earth.org.uk/rss/podcast.rss though there are others. A client should see Cache-Control, Expires, Last-Modified and ETag at least. If you were able to at least get If-Modified-Since to work that could help reduce CPU and bandwidth for both ends significantly! Thank you! Damon |

An update to say that Feeder seems to be playing very nicely with my site! (Please do consider skipHours at some point, maybe as I formulated above to deal with your concern...) Thank you! Damon |

Have you considered support for these (RSS-feed-specified skipHours tag, and server-supplied HTTP expiry time/date) to reduce bandwidth and CPU?
