Early Results: Patch Rocks ...

In simple tests (not a large project, not all features checked):

1) Snappier launch.
2) No tool lag.
3) Text/numeric fields back to normal.
4) Single-frame render tests a bit quicker.

Sidenote: Double-clicking Layer to open Layer Options back? This had been absent in 5, no? Cool!

If anything bad pops up, I'll post again, but -- generally -- a BIG improvement. Back on par with v4.6. Thanks for the hard work ....

No, that was always there in v5, but the lag that was all over the place may have made it slow to respond.

I thought this update was supposed to fix user-interface sluggishness, which it may have, I have not tested that yet, but it does seem to have improved the rendering speed.

I have a 43 second animation that normally takes aprox 1 hour to render on my 400mhz Powerbook. Now it takes 41 minutes.

This is a significant improvement, thanks very much!
