How does FW plex spawning work exactly?

I've been trying to find reliable information on how the spawning works exactly for FW plexes. When does a new plex spawn after an existing one has been run? How many plexes are created per hour when a system is continually contested in all available systems?

Spawn is 30 minutes after capture.

Anything named * Outpost respawns in the same system.

Other plexes (the original style) spawn in a randomly selected system in the same theater (one of four: Gallente, Caldari, Minmatar, Amarr). If the plex spawns in a system owned by the other side, then it will not spawn until after downtime as that side's plex.

When a female plex and a male plex love each other very much, they come together in the deepest darkest parts of space (usually Aridia or Solitude). The male plex enters the female plex's warp-in point, and delicately orbits her button slowly, slowly, for about 10-15 minutes (20 if she's particularly large), until her timer expires. She then awards him copious loyalty points, and goes away for 30 minutes to gestate. She dies in childbirth soon after, and her offspring respawn. The lonely male plex, no one knows what happens to him, despite the best effort of astrobiological scientists to tag and release. It is presumed that he goes into a wormhole, and becomes the elusive C4 to hisec static. But no one ever knows.
