job table question
Hi.

Other than accounting for currently scheduled jobs, is there any harm in clearing out the job table? -Any constraints or other table relationships that need to be taken into account?

-Thanks.

Not that I know of. I know one or two users who have cleared their jobs
tables before and didn't report any issues. The Bricolage API documentation
even suggests it as a way of speeding up database performance on large
tables: http://bricolagecms.org/docs/current/api/Bric/DBA.html

Thanks,
Nick
