As we stepped through the wizard interface to create panels, we accepted the default value of running the search each time the dashboard loads. As we mentioned earlier, this means that the user is penalized each and every time the dashboard is loaded in their web browser. It is silly (and a waste of resources) to rerun what may be multiple searches that are within a dashboard panel if the data that the search is based upon does not change very often. For example, if the indexed data is updated every evening, then rerunning a search on that data multiple times within the same day will not yield different results and would be a waste of resources.
