How to disable Boost

Post by alanboey »

Hi All,
I enabled Boost by mistake (thinking that it would be usefull) and now I am not able to disable it.
Even when I uncheck the option, I still see boost running occasionally in the logs as well.

May I know how do I actually turn boost completely off.
Thanks for any advice.

Your 2nd screen shot still shows it enabled.

Boost is "Enable On-Demand RRD Updating" and it is extremely useful, especially if you have slower platter based storage.

Enabling boost Debug never ends up well as you will flood your log, and slow boost to a crawl likely.
