Hi,

when man clears the boost cache from the boost UI page - the cache_settings table gets cleared also.... This is not intuitive cause in my opinion the cache_settings table is more of a settings table than just a part of boost's data...

It is more like the drupal variables table than say the boost_cache table...

So option 1 - add some written notice next to the clear button that this table gets cleaned...
Option 2 - do not clean the table on clear-boost-cache.

I prefer option 2. I patched my boost.module commenting line 1298 in boost.admin.inc (version 6.18 of boost)

Hope you guys agree with me and patch boost in some way to aleviate the situation.

I need a second table in the boost table to keep track of the page generation time, thus I can calculate the new expiration time. I agree that the current way is kinda a dumb way to set the new settings.
