I see 4-6 hours in the document, but what do you really think is 
reasonable here for RIRs or other participants Randy?

One of the concerns I have is publication or download delays for new 
information resulting in operational issues we all experienced with 
IRR object publication and mirroring that led to a slew of manual IRR 
[repository] downloads, routing policy updates, and route "bounces" 
or session resets.   

Given, we're in a far better place than this today with incrementally 
updated prefix filters and route refresh offsetting BGP/TCP statefulness, 
and prefix-validation with rpki-rtr to delivery origin validation 
data to routers helps with where we're going, but I'm still concerned 
that if we don't expressly aim to understand publication and 
synchronization dynamics issues can arise that lead to considerable
delays in getting even "business day" resolution to a problem.
