Hi Ries,

I see.

"periodically stored intermediate result"

You still could use the concept of such a periodically evaluation, which
means that you store the results of evaluation for following *less* dynamic
calls. To signal the active contributer immidate success, you don't
evaluate the intermediate results daily or hourly, but in every occasion of
an active submit. (UPDATE query).

It still has disadvantages:

- It works for extension you programm yourself. Extensions from TER usually
don't support this concept.
- Upon an evaluation you need to clear the dependant cached static pages to
fresh the result. Ugly.
- Alternatively you still use USER_INT (disadvantage), but already based on
the stored results. (advantage)

So this periodically stored intermediate results can only be a part of the
solution.
