-BE WARNED this will
-take several minutes. You can do this while the node is running. There is a
-planned method of keeping the US DB up to date with smaller (ie < 5Mb) patch
+1. download the database at http://www.dxcluster.org/download/usdbraw.gz
+2. save it somewhere (/tmp, anywhere).
+3. Decompress it using your favorite program (gunzip / winzip) [call it
+ usdbraw if winzip]{BE WARNED, some browsers may decompress it on the
+ fly for you, you can tell; if it is 5Mb it is compressed - 16Mb not}.
+4. remove any /spider/data/user.v1 files lying around (at least for this
+ first time.
+5. cd /spider/perl
+6. perl create_usdb.pl /tmp/usdbraw (ie the UNCOMPRESSED file)
+7. Wait, I suggest some cups of tea are in order.
+8. Wait a bit more.
+
+You don't need Compress::Zlib anymore, I assumed it was universal.
+
+You will be able do this while the node is running somewhen. There is a
+planned method of keeping the US DB up to date with smaller (ie < 15Mb) patch
