 +REMEMBER! If you have query logging enabled, if the box is busy then you can easily build up to the point where all logs only go back 1 hour and the support bundle is 3.3Gb.
 +===== Query Logging Warning =====
 +NIOS 9.0.7 introduced a useful warning when query/response logging is enabled (basically, don't do it unless you know what you are doing because it could have a massive impact on performance - expecially if you have configured the system to send all the logs out via SYSLOG.
 +
 +You can disable the warning with:
 +<code>set query_logging_warnings off</code>
 +<code>set query_logging_warnings on</code>
