heapqueue scanning -- prioritize near cells #10

Closed bukzor closed 7 years ago

Instead of mindlessly tracing a static pattern repeatedly, it would be preferable if the scanner actually understood the staleness of its cells and refreshed them appropriately.

I'd like to put a bell-curve distribution on the staleness tolerance of the cells; the center cell should be always completely up-to-date, but the cells on the fringe can be a bit more stale.
