Crawl Rate just appeared in my Google Webmaster Tools

I have been trapped in meetings all week so I have not posted, hope to post more next week.

I am so excited I finally have the crawl rate control in my Google Webmaster Tools, what a great feature! My sites get millions of crawls a data from Google’s data centers and it’s amazing to see how much capacity it sucks up. But now when user traffic spike I can ask Google to slow down for a while to keep the load off of my sites. What a great tool
