[db-wg] increase daily db dump frequency?

Hi Job, WG,

We investigated this. The split files take around 4,5 hours to generate, due to the size of the database.

We could raise the frequency to every six hours, i.e. four times per day. It would require significant resources from one of the slave nodes, but under normal circumstances this should not be an issue. Please let us know if you think this would be valuable. Also, others, please let us know if you would expect any practical problems on your side if split files are produced more frequently.

Kind regards,

Tim Bruijnzeels
