Setting Default Description
InitialBytes 65536 How much of a file the page shows when it is opened: the last InitialBytes bytes, from the first whole line.
MaxBytesPerPoll 262144 The most bytes one poll reads (a file that grew more than that is caught up over the next polls).
PollInterval 1000 The poll interval of the page in milliseconds, while lines arrive.
MaxPollInterval 15000 While nothing arrives the interval doubles after each empty poll, up to MaxPollInterval milliseconds.
MaxLinesKept 5000 The most lines the page keeps (older lines are dropped from the page, never from the file).
WrapLines enabled Whether long lines are wrapped for a viewer who has not chosen yet. The page's "Wrap lines" switch stores each viewer's choice as the user preference admin_logviewer_wrap (1 or 0), kept for every log and every visit. enabled | disabled
ChunkCacheTTL 10 The server keeps the last chunk read of each file for this many seconds, so several viewers of the same file, and a poll whose file has not changed, are answered without opening it. 0 switches the cache off.
ChunkCacheMaxBytes 262144 The most bytes of a chunk the cache keeps.
