For your second issue, I suspect it would be better to inspect when this calculation needs to happen, it would be best if it could be handled in batch at a specified time where network traffic is at its trough.

EDIT: Woops. I actually found 2 links but lost the first one, apparently. Hopefully you have it fixed.
