I'm not sure if this is a problem or not but I have a WU running for over 8 hours CPU time and it is only at 2.5% complete. It does seem to be pick up speed now. Using Intel Mac, MW vers 0.26.

It is not toast, just the 0.26 app is not check pointing, so it starts over at 0% every time.

I have already pointed the problem out to Travis and he said that he would look into it.

This was about the same time as the new validator was starting up as well.

Would checking "Leave applications in memory while suspended" help?
Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected the expected?
If it makes sense, DON'T do it.

Well, now it has been running for 13 hrs and it is 60% complete. I must have been stuck in some long initialization sequence. Last checkpoint happened about 45 minutes ago.
