Akismet - check more often?

Yes here is how it works:

  • If a user is TL0 their post is enqueued to be checked as quick as it can be pulled off the work queue. This probably happens within a few seconds unless your server is very busy with some other work.

  • Otherwise the posts are checked in a job that is scheduled every 10 mins.

I’d be open to adding a setting to check more often (or less often) than 10 minutes if I heard a good use case. Are you interested in checking higher trust levels more quickly than that?
