Did she suggest how often you should change diagonals?

As an example, for those of you who have or are going to canter 
substantial portions of a
ride like Git R Done where there is no slope to speak of, few turns, and 
consistent 
footing, I am interested to know how often and how you change leads.

Can't tell you on canter, but on the diagonal changes, Josie had taken up the 
habit of changing every six beats after a prominent rider told her she did. 
When she rode Valarie's horse in competition she asked if that was OK and Val 
said, "You don't want to change that often because changing diagonals affects 
the horse's breathing rhythm and it has to readjust too often".
