+The assistant re-checks preferred content as rarely as it can get away with,
+since that can be an expensive process. Basically, it checks it when
+starting up, and when a remote is added or edited, and when it detects
+certian kinds of divergences between the local repository and a remote.
+
+I agree that it's not possible to express an expiry using a preferred
+content expression.
+
+What would work better is if you can move the old files to some other
+directory via a cron job or whatever means. Then it's easy to configure it
+not to want files in that directory.
