CAll for action - PLEASE READ

Hmm, I am not shure I understand your reasoning, I always tought
* If the cueue increases there are to few hostmasters, or the hostmasters
spend to long time on each request.
* If the queue is long but not increasing, increasing the number of
hostmasters will bring down the cueue to zero, but

Possible fixes:
- increase the number of hostmasters
- lower the ammount of time spent on each request

the first is simple,
the second is more complex:

- make the hostmasters work faster (better training, faster computers, other
incentives)
- simplify the procedures to make the work faster
- simplify the policy so that the procedures could be simpler
- clearify the policy/procedures so that the requests are resolved at first
iteration rather than requiring a number of interactions to solve a problem
- make the LIR staff sumitt better requests (better training, faster
computers, cleverer people)

>From looking at this from time to time, I don't think one single factor can
solve the problem or bring us out of the situation we are in.
