Improving Restarts for Productions with Large Queues

By default, when a production is stopped, any asynchronous messages on the ^Ens.Queue global queue are moved to the ^Ens.Suspended queue. When the production is restarted, they are moved back. For productions with many messages in the queue, this can slow down the process of stopping and restarting a production. To avoid moving the messages, you can set the following ^Ens.Configuration global node:

set ^Ens.Configuration("Queues","KeepInQueues")=1

By default, the node is set to 0; you will have to change this for each namespace. This will prevent the messages from being moved out of the Ens.Queue global, which can improve restart speeds on productions which consistently have large queues.
