Just curious, what about the possibility of automating this?  In other
words, run through idle patches any time the gate volume gets below a
certain threshold.  If you come across a patch that hasn't been
visited/modified in over say a week, and it doesn't have any failures
(-1's, -2's etc) then go ahead an run a check on it.  The volume will
likely prevent it from keeping all of them updated but it might make a
significant dent.

Might work, might not.  But if the simple action described above
causes *hours* of gate delay it very well may be more than worth
making an attempt to automate IMO.
