backlog issues

[tokejepsen]

what and where is the backlog?

having issues with the timeouts on backlog events taking a very long time to process

[pboucher]

The backlog is in the .id file which is a pickled Python datastructure. If you do want to go in there to edit it, please make sure to make a backup first and to shut down the daemon. I strongly suggest not editing the file directly with a text editor but using an interactive Python session to unpickle the data, inspect / edit it and repickle it into the file.

why is it the daemon puts events in a backlog?

sorry for all the questions, but cant seem to find info on this.
