Okay, this doesn't make sense...or, at least, not if I read what Katsuhiro
wrote around October 17th.  

Right now, I have 12million overview records to 7million articles...almost
a 2:1 ratio...you have 6million to 7million, less them 1:1...

First thing that jumps to mind ... shouldn't you have *at a minimum* one
overview record for every article?

Considering that you are showing less then 1:1, while I'm showing almost
2:1, but our number of articles is pretty close...either you aren't
getting all your overview records *or* I'm not expiring mine properly...?

Katsuhiro...thoughts/comments?
