Viessman modulating system boiler. Reasonably well insulated house.
Underfloor heating controlled by 10 (yes 10) thermostats and DHW given
priority.
In the excitement of moving house, I hadn't given much thought to time
clock settings and left 24 hour operation selected. With the relatively
warm Winter weather I have realised that the boiler spends most of the
burn time on the lowest of the 5 available settings.
Does this matter? I can cheat by limiting the CH on periods to provide a
bigger load. Any thoughts?

A constant low burn will be more efficient than on-off-on-off.
If only by eliminating the post and pre burn "purges" of cold air through the boiler.
