[Realtime-feed-users] Delayed feeds and/or events (1+ hours)

[David Loring]

For example, if the event occurs at 1pm, and is posted at 1:30pm, the event would fall off the feed at 2pm thus only staying on the feed for 30 minutes.

 

Yup, exactly what happens. This should not be a problem if you are accessing every 5 minutes Matt, except where a quake does not make it to the short list inside one hour as does happen.

Harold, 

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one experiencing this issue. With regard to events not staying on the feed for an hour, I always assumed that the "Past Hour" meant that it only showed events that actually occurred within the last hour. For example, if the event occurs at 1pm, and is posted at 1:30pm, the event would fall off the feed at 2pm thus only staying on the feed for 30 minutes. I think this is why my app was missing so many events. The event would be posted 1+ hours after it occurred so it was only hitting the Past Day and longer feeds. Though i could be wrong.
