Question on Purge?

[vyshas]

Is there a way know if purge is running without looking at the Acralyzer front-end from the browser. Is there a service or process that I can check if purge is currently running because if my browser crashes , I am expecting the previous purge to run but I don't know the status of it !!

Try checking the CouchDb admin interface for Active tasks. You won't be able to see the purging specifically, but it should provide a good indication of whether the indexing etcetera is still causing a high load.
