add no_deletes option to result summary pages of ops section

[Christian Beer]

There should be an optional switch to suppress results that are in state deleted and thus would not show on the result summary pages of the ops section. After each file_deleter run, the summary is cluttered with results because the delete state changed from initial to deleted and thus the mod_time was updated.

I'm not sure if this should be per-user or as a parameter to result_summary.php (and similar pages). What I would like to see is that I can set it as default and switch it of when needed.

I don't understand what you mean by "file_deleter" run. The file deleter normally runs as a daemon and works continuously.

[Christian Beer]

Yes, the file_deleter runs continuously but the affected results also show in the "last 24 hours" summary page (result_summary.php). Sometimes there are a lot of results that get deleted overnight and are mingled with returned results. The only way to distinguish the old ones (that got deleted) from the newly returned is by browsing all results in the links provided by the Results summary page and looking at the file delete state column.

Sometimes I get excited that successful results are shown on the summary page but taking a closer look it turns out those are old ones that got deleted.

We are running with <delay_bound> 1728000 </delay_bound> which means that there is some time between returning a result and deleting the files.

[davea]

You mean, <delete_delay_hours>, right? (not <delay_bound>)

[Christian Beer]

Yes, that's correct. We have <delete_delay_hours>240</delete_delay_hours> set in config.xml. I mixed that up.

I checked in a change that should fix this.
