| Jan 13, 2014 at 15:40 | comment | added | 永劫回帰 | I though that で and ほど were more or less equivalent here but I am apparently wrong. So I would be interested in knowing what does mean the pattern using で. | |

The author of the website says that if you came up with a sentence 休めば休んだで... and are told it is wrong, then most likely you confused で and ほど and should construct your sentence as 休めば休んだほど....
