the -K option #1012
Description
the -K option is not always applied when running phase 2 in a rewrite cycle (even subphases). restarting the program sometimes helps. I can not clearly catch the cause of this bug.
if the parameter works, then rewriting the tables takes about twice as long as scanning. if the parameter is ignored, then 6 times more. at the same time, in terms of processor load, I observe a significant decrease in employment.
Below are examples of launch and logs:
