Make the incremental scanning functionality of Auctioneer configurable: add an option to enable/disable this functionality. At this time (version is 5.6.4424, as reference) the incremental scanning functionality is always active and can't be turned off. This option is meant for users with more then one AH addon and who are very active on the AH. The incremental search functionality replaces the warcraft-internal QueryAuctionItems() function with a custom version. This is a wrapper function around the internal QueryAuctionItems() that processes each auction search, even done by other addons, with the goal to update the Auctioneer database. Whenever there is heavy AH activity, this extra processing can end up causing problematic machine slows, long freezes and even disconnects. Because this functionality is not a critical function of Auctioneer (it's has no added value whenever regular full, or category scans are performed), being able to turn it off speeds up performance significantly for heavy users and makes Auctioneer much more compatible with other addons like QuickAuctions. A discussion about this option, the problems it can solve, and a working hard-coded fix can be found in the following forum post: http://forums.norganna.org/discussion/11246/a-way-to-deactivate-incremental-scanning
