Re: [ADMIN] slower every day

This issue was resently discussed on hackers. It is a known issue, not very
convinient for the user. Nevertheless it is not fixed in 8.0, but will
perhaps be addressed in the next major release.
(Remembering, it was a non-trivial thing to change.)

Although it's my fault to have 2 (tow) lines for the same issue, and that I
should realize that this is MY MISTAKE, the log defaults on a reload, if
commented, tend to be the last value entered?
