> this is from nutch-default.xml:
> <property>
>   <name>crawl.gen.delay</name>
>   <value>604800000</value>
>   <description>
>    This value, expressed in milliseconds, defines how long we should keep the lock on records 
>    in CrawlDb that were just selected for fetching. If these records are not updated 
>    in the meantime, the lock is canceled, i.e. they become eligible for selecting. 
>    Default value of this is 7 days (604800000 ms).
>   </description>
> </property>
> this is the from o.a.n.crawl.Generator.configure(JobConf job)
> genDelay = job.getLong(GENERATOR_DELAY, 7L) * 3600L * 24L * 1000L;
> the value in config file is in milliseconds but the code expect it to be in days. I reported this couple of years ago on the mailing list as well. I didn't post a patch becaue I am not sure which one needs to be fixed. considering all the other values in config file are in milliseconds it can be argued to that consistency matters, but 'day' is a much more reasonable unit for this property.
> Also this value is not being used in 2.x ?
