No worries, that's why it's an option. :)

Good news, thanks for the bug report. I'll get the fix in today.

I'm glad to hear that, thank you for the kind words. In my own testing
(on a fairly fast system) it was pretty close, but the benefits
increased in direct relation to the number of out of date ports. So even
if you're not using a custom INDEX at worse it's no real harm, and it
can speed things up.
