once you use it once, do you always have to use it going forward on full rescans? or can you pick when its used? like an on/off switch? erland;574749 Wrote: > If it isn't fast enough, we need to implement some caching mechanism or > optimize the performance in some other way but let's handle that after > we know it's needed.
