    The hourly cron job cleans up temporary data that is used in some of the features, removes blocks that have expired, handles some of the security network updates, and things like that — it’s not a full scan every hour.

    You can disable any of the features if you don’t need their protection.

    I am not sure it’s working properly. Please see my other post. It looks like it’s been scanning forever, it’s 11:41 am here right now, and the scan looks like it started yesterday around 3:00 pm.

    I still say once a day would be sufficient, or at least a configurable option.

    I’ve replied to the other post, where it looks like the scan failed. The hourly cron job is not related to the scans, and does a few different tasks, mentioned above.
