I don't specifically remember (Lars @ SuSE wrote the code).
IIRC smbd will parse the service array (in memory) and checks
to see if new printers need to be added and if old ones need
to be deleted.  And this is done per smbd so on an active
server, you will probably see a hit if you set it extremely
low.

IMO a time of about 900 seconds (15 minutes) is probably ok.
But experiement and see what works for you.





cheers, jerry
