   How often does eBoostr rebuild its cache? Did I see somewhere else in here that it occurs every hour? Now that could lead to an issue if it just happened to be doing it when Ghost was attempting a backup.

   Any info is appreciated.

   Actually, this begs a whole host of questions, including:

   1) Is there an advantage to frequent rebuilding?

   2) I don't think mine rebuilds every hour, but would manual rebuilding be advantageous?

   3) Should we have a configuration setting from the GUI that allows us to set the rebuild time?

   My understanding is that the cache automatically rebuilds every hour. The development team has promised to include a setting to change that time in a later build of version 4. Already included since build 536 is:

   "Cache rebuild behavior
   Once an hour eBoostr service checks if your computer is idle and updates the cache contents. We have added a new parameter “idletimebuild” which allows you to set the amount of time your computer is actually idle to start a cache rebuild. This value is given in seconds and is equal to 60 seconds by default.

   Example: You often leave your computer idle for short periods of time (phone calls or college chats for example) and eBoostr automatically starts cache update. You get back to your desktop and cache rebuild is interrupted before finished leaving not fully filled cache or outdated file contents. Now you can set the value of actual idle time for the eBoostr to start cache update. Set it for example to 10-15 minutes and cache will be updated only during your lunch time or a long meeting."

   Is this 'idletimebuild' actually, in the newest build, 'MinIdleValue'? For I have a variable of that name in my 'Settings' file (and its value is set to 80).

   They may have changed it, not sure where to look under windows 7, but idletimebuild is the time before rebuilding and the MinIdleValue is the time it waits if you are doing something in the idletimebuild time.
