Some old CN versions have set "sqlite.pragma.synchronous" to OFF to gain performance.
Some users still have this setting, which turned out to be dangerous.
CN now always ignores the "OFF" setting for sqlite.pragma.synchronous and uses "NORMAL" instead.
Since AFAIK you're using FULL, this change doesn't have any effect on you.

Thanks for clarifying this. Indeed i use FULL and imo ignoring the OFF setting is a good decision

Hi Alex,
Congratulations on the new release! I'm using NORMAL now and performance has not been a problem. What advantage would there be changing it to FULL?
Also, I've been using the portable version of CN all along and just copy the new release over the old one. Should I at some point delete the settings file and recreate it to flush out old settings? I think I last did that for 2.5.

Hi Gunars,
taken from the sqlite docs:
"When synchronous is NORMAL (1), the SQLite database engine will still sync at the most critical moments, but less often than in FULL mode."

Hi Gunars,
well there's no reason to do that unless the "old" settings bother you. They shouldn't influence the program's behavior.
