Distant Horizons without generating chunks

Which settings should I use to only display lods of the chunks I've been in before? Even selecting Pre existing chunks only makes the game to generate more chunks.

Pretty sure pre-existing generate LODs for only existing chunks in the world. If there's chunk data that have no LOD data for it, Distant Horizons will continue generate LOD data for it.

You can leave your settings as-is. It will eventually finished generating all LOD data for all the chunks you already have on your world. Once that one's finished, it will calm down to a more reasonable levels.

It usually says 14-20 hours, can I play leave and quit while it loads? I'm going to reset all settings then Some people used chunky, but FAQ says don't use it

You can, but beware of cpu useage. You can change that in the config, so it uses a percentage of your threads, it is the cpu usage option.
