If you're using Model::save(), then no, there's no way to deactivate
it (that I know of).
However, you could try this:
$this->MyModel->updateAll(array('visits' => 'visits+1'), array('id' =>
{{whatever}}));
This will update the record, but will not call beforeSave(),
afterSave(), or update any other fields. It will just do a straight
sql update.
