I think the pages are now generated as XML
files and are static until, like the groundspeak
topic states, there is a change to the data in
the database.  At that time, the XML file is
regenerated.  They couldn't do the XML file
AND keep the find count because they'd
have to go to the database everytime to get
the find count.  That's what they are trying
to avoid doing.
