<div dir="ltr">Well, my first thought is to check for the user id - Boost is almost certainly crawling the site as an anonymous user, yeah?  And if we&#39;re talking about user-specific data, just have the process not run if the user_id == 0.<div>

    I have a lot of data that I am loading into PHP buffer from a text
    file cache. I recently added the Boost module. When the Boost
    crawler runs, I have no need for this data as it is user-specific.<br>
    What server variable is available to determine whether the process
    is a Web request or not? I would like to limit the resources that
    Boost uses when crawling the site.<br>
