Can query caching be turned off?

Open josemduarte opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

It seems that the server will read the results from the cached one in jobs directory (/docker-compose/jobs) whenever the sequence in query has already being processed once by the server. I guess the job id is some kind of hash of the sequence string.

Question: can this behaviour be overridden? so that the alignment is always performed instead of read from cache? The problem is that I would like to periodically remove queries to clean up the cache and not fill the disk. But if I do that with the current system, queries will start failing once they are not found in cache.

I haven't forgotten about this issue, however I am a bit busy currently. This will require a bit refactoring and cleanup.
