Disabling or caching nodes in a flow

You can disable a node so it's ignored when the flow runs. And you can set up a cache on a node.

Disabling nodes in a flow
You can disable process nodes that have a single input so that they're ignored when the flow runs. This saves you from having to remove or bypass the node and means you can leave it connected to the remaining nodes.
Caching options for nodes
To optimize the running of flows, you can set up a cache on any nonterminal node. When you set up a cache on a node, the cache is filled with the data that passes through the node the next time you run the data flow. From then on, the data is read from the cache (which is stored temporarily) rather than from the data source.
