The new applications should be both more efficient than 6.14 and eliminate any lag in the user interface in Windows.

Thank you GDF. While ther has been no performance increase on my machines because they are fairly well optimized to run your work lag has dissappeared and can now hopefully continue crunching and doing all the other things I need to do on my computer without my overly aggresive posts. :)

Will you be releasing a Linux version of the 6.15 app?

A workunit that ran about 20 hours, then failed with a Error while computing:

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.

This apparantly happened when I turned on the monitor after running
overnight with the monitor turned off. It was rather slow to display

and the driver was restarted successfully.
