What is wrong is that your home misses an optic fiber connection to
alioth :) Try it on alioth and see the difference between "svn+ssh://"
and "file:///" :)
(Oh, I see in your other mail you've already figured this out)

Thanks.

Little math can help. Divide the current run time to that of
versioncheck-html. The result is how many times a day this may be run
without additional harming.

The tricky part would be to tune the cache expiry times.

It is already used. Works really nice.
