Taken from the online docs:

NoImport
When set to one or more Interchange database identifiers, those
database(s) will never be subject to import. Useful for SQL databases or
databases that will ``never'' change. 

   NoImport   inventory

No need to comment out anything.  Set the NoImport directive in your
catalog.cfg for each table you do not want imported at startup.
