Dirk usually writes a nice explanation for those of us with a poorer 
understanding of the language. The train doesn't wait and leaves the platform 
after five minutes, but the driver is a bit flexible anyway.

" The first time a connection is made, after node startup, there is a 5 
(configurable) minute pause before RBN spots come out for users. This is done to 
fill up (or "train") the cache. Otherwise the users will be overwhelmed by spots 
- it slows down reasonably quickly - but experiment shows that 5 minutes is a 
reasonable compromise. The delay is configurable, globally, for all RBN 
connections, but in future is likely to be configurable per connection. 
Basically, because the FTx RBN data is much more bursty and there is more of it 
(except on CW contests), it could do with a somewhat longer training period than 
the CW etc RBN connection."
