juniper routers don't hard refresh every 30mins but rather in random intervals
between 30mins and 55mins - so i don't think that our OSPF implementation
is a major contributor to refresh storms ...

My suggestion is that a router send only one packet to tell every other router that it wants to refresh all its LSAs. This is just a way of telling others "I am still there. Dont discard my lsas."
