Can somebody help me take a look on my datalog of 40minutes of drive.

I've look around forums and many said that we should ignore the knock count value and focus on knock control instead.
But the knock count i've encounted still bothering me. 50k km now and i plan to keep this car for a long time, maybe 3 more years.
Anyone encounter this low rpm knock count with their civic x 1.5T CVT with tuned?
What is the knock count value and knock control percentage to be consider normal on a 40minutes commute?

Not gonna download the datalog because I can't at the moment, but what is the knock count and knock control levels that are bothering you? 54% is the lowest k.control goes on Hondata, and it's normal for it to fluctuate. In fact, on non-Si Civics, there is a forced increase above 4000 RPM. Knock count is almost useless according to pretty much all reputable tuners (Vit supposedly induced audible knock and the ECU knock count didn't move).
