If I remember correctly, the test data is rebuilt automatically after
modified algorithms have been put in place on the snowball site. There
might I guess be a short time gap between installing a modified
algorithm and rebuilding the data.

I say "remember correctly" because it is a while now since an algorithm
has been altered.

Perhaps Richard Boulton could confirm this?
