Comment (by dgoulet):

 There is. Upon a successful fetch of a descriptor, you can't query again
 that HSDir until:

 {{{
 /** The period for which a hidden service directory cannot be queried for
  * the same descriptor ID again. */
 #define REND_HID_SERV_DIR_REQUERY_PERIOD (15 * 60)
 }}}

 However, the "HSDir queried time" cache can be purged with a NEWNYM
 signal.

 But please, lets be careful here, there is a reason why that limit is
 there, to avoid network load and bombarding HSDir with requests like for
 example a client script that could be to insistent. ;)
