Hi,

I've cc'ed the mailing list as other people might be interested as well.

The different methods pertain to different strategies for traversing
the graph of information resources.

You can find more information about breadth-first traversal on
Wikipedia [1]. Because LDSpider is multithreaded, there might be
slight deviations from strict BFS traversal. Also, there are
parameters to limit the amount of lookups done to certain pay-level
domains.

The other two methods implement different orders in which links are
expanded, hence you get different results.

Best regards,
Andreas.
