FTL Enhancements
In addition to the fixes for all parts of Pi-hole, the new version ofFTL enhances flexibility in regards to the long-term database. It is now possible to specify in the config file where the database should be stored (defaults to /etc/pihole/pihole-FTL.db) and how often new queries are added to the database (defaults to once per minute).
This allows to e.g. easily put the database on an external device (possibly also a network share) or to increase or lower the update frequency of the database.
Note that we already collect all new queries within a certain time interval (given e.g. one minute) and write them in one batch to the file instead of writing immediately after each query to reduce load on e.g. SD cards.
