I've been passing on questions from this thread to the researchers, and
I'm still waiting for their reply. So I won't answer most of the
questions just yet, but I can answer this one.
It's a UDP stream of new requests, they won't get any old data.
There is no old log data for them to have, except at 1/1000 sampling,
and even that has gaps in it due to disk-full conditions, and it doesn't
go back very far.
