Actually I've been informed otherwise, they crawl known links first according to this person:

> Unfortunately, based on what I'm seeing in my logs, I do need the bot detection. The crawlers that visit me, have a list of URLs to crawl, they do not immediately visit newly discovered URLs, so it would take a very, very long time to fill their queue. I don't want to give them that much time.
