pull down to refresh

I find framework/tool/infrastructure additions to be more trouble than they're worth at SN's scale.1
We currently construct time buckets of stats in a normal table. Instead of continuously refreshing those time buckets, I'm thinking of doing some kind of incremental update atomic with a payment's state transitions.

I think this is the way to go in general, even beyond your scale. New systems can be such a can of worms and should only be added with great care (of course there are exceptions)
