I'm trying your suggestion right now. It would certainly be an easy way to avoid accumulation, but, in terms of voiding a queue with millions of files saved up until I'm ready to lose them (at the end of a test run), it doesn't seem any improvement in speed over just right-clicking and emptying a queue.

If I want a sink node to get rid of flow files while I’m messing around I add a ‘dev/null' update attribute processor that does nothing. Set the output to automatically terminate and just connect the queue to it and start it up. If you want to retain some output to look at just stop it processing.

If I'm experimenting and have gajillions of flowfiles in a queue that takes a very long time to empty from the UI, is there a quicker way? I can certainly bounce NiFi, delete files, both, etc.
