[db-wg] increase daily db dump frequency?

Dear WG,

We’re investigating the possibility of increasing the frequency of refreshing the split files on the FTP site and the impact it would have for other users.
As an alternative solution, can you use our primary mirror since it’s up-to-date?

Kind regards,
Thiago da Cruz
Software Engineer - RIPE NCC Database Team
