Comment (by pastly):
There's no parameter that directly controls the frequency with which sbws
will scan an arbitrary relay. If you want to increase (or decrease) how
often sbws gets around to scanning relay Foo, then you can
- increase (or decrease) the number of measurement threads (def: 3, I use
6 when I test sbws)
- decrease (or increase) the number of downloads to make per measurement
(def: 10, I leave alone)
- decrease (or increase) the duration a download must be in order to be
considered valid (def:

documented here])
If you're against changing those parameters and still can't manage to
accumulate the desired number of measurements for relay Foo within the
validity period, then you can increase the validity period.
In the name of the added code complexity, I'm against adding a notion to
the prioritizer that says it should aim for making a measurement for relay
Foo every X hours. Or that measurements should be performed differently
when we have a lot of "catching up" to do.
