Do you really enjoy waiting 30 min for a bug to be created to get a bug number?

I agree there are a number of problems with debbugs, but I don't think it's helpful to exaggerate quite so wildly. The cron job that processes incoming messages runs every three minutes, and it doesn't in practice take long enough to end up with a backlog, so 30 minutes isn't plausible unless there's some kind of temporary outage.

I've experimentally changed it to run every minute instead, since I couldn't think of a reason not to.
