Transfermarket refresh

Would it be too much server stress to fill the market(s) with one random rider per minute, instead of 1000(?) every 5(?) days?
At least the chances of getting the desired rider would be the same, regardless of when you look at the market.
If you now counter that it would produce too much load because the managers would click to the market constantly the whole day long, than we could introduce a limit for each player. Something like 2x half an hour per day, respectively beginning with the first click on "transfer market". Half an hour after that the market is closed for you. If you click again on "transfer market" (later in the day or immediateley after) the second half hour begins. If that expired, too, than the market is closed until the change of the day (whenever that is, RSF-wise or 24 o'clock).
