LYNX-DEV pause times in -traversal

[Scott McGee (Personal)]

Hi all,

I was running a traversal of my site today, and noticed that it runs exremely
fast, except when it finds a bad link, and then it sits and pauses for several
seconds. Normally, the INFO MESSAGE and ALERT pauses are very good to have, but
I wonder if they are really usefull during a -traversal at all. I know they are
not usefull to me in -traversal mode. I even tried a local copy of lynx.cfg 
with the values set to 0, but the ALERTs still pause for about three seconds.

What would others think of skipping the pause during a -traversal? If you don't
think you'd like that, how about an additional switch to turn off the pause?

I suppose I should mention that one reason I run lynx in -traversal mode is to
identify such problems (via the contents of the errors.dat file) and so I
_expect_ such errors, but still don't need lynx to pause for each one.
