Reason for ClearCacheTask to run every 60 sec.

Hi,

I am running v 1.60 and I really haven't noticed the following in web.config until today:
<task name="ClearCache" type="NopSolutions.NopCommerce.BusinessLogic.Caching.ClearCacheTask, Nop.BusinessLogic" enabled="true" stopOnError="false" />

Do anyone know the reason why this is enabled by default and why it needs to run each 60 secs?

I would really like to change it to run once every couple of hours or maybe disable it completely, I see it's disabled in v1.9 but perhaps there are a reason to why the cache must be cleared every minute in v1.60.

Anyone?

Thanks.

There's no any particular reason to have it enabled. But sometimes your cache can grow, and it allows to clear it. You can change this setting to run once per hour or disable it. Everything will continue to work fine

Thanks a lot Andrei, I will try to find the best setting for my shop then.
