not*"building*, no... but *make*-ing is quite feasible since it would be
incremental and unless the upload was a major major basic primitive, not of
huge effect, right?
I am thinking that you run make as a background job from cron every 2 min
and one of the production rules is the thing that updates symlinks based on
new files appearing or disappearing. Not sure though.
Perhaps once an hour or once a day is enough?
I am thinking as well that a properly set up make system can be used for far
more than just generating images, it can also (as Ralph said) do things like
create incremental zips for you that are continuously updated, and all kinds
of neat stuff.
