Default Re: Researching vs Site Searching

What do you do? Set one mage to casting a monthly site searching ritual, and the other 9 to research? Or set all 10 to search 10 different sites, and keep them searching as long as you have gems to cast the spells, and un-searched provinces? Or something in between? And why?

If I'm lazy, I set two of them to site search monthly because then I only have to look up 2 unsearched provinces. If I'm trying to optimize I have all 10 cast site-searching spells immediately. The gem cost is the same, but I get 2-3 extra turns of income (on average) out of any sites I do happen to find.

Since 3.08 came out I'm usually lazy.
