store backend data outside container? #3

Hi, this is more an idea instead of a bug, maybe you can look at it. It seems nfsen-ng creates a lot of ".rrd" files in /var/www/html/backend/datasources/data . They are recreated from the profiles-data of nfdump if they are missing, but it took hours on my box last time I had to restart things. I'm using a volume for the backend data and it seems to speed up the restart. Can it have any negative impact?

Cheers, Dirk

Do you think rrd files should also be stored in a volume? I'll look into that.
