I downloaded this and switched over from 6.23. My points dropped from 1500/day for this machine to 500/day...
Am I missing something?
I saw another comment on the forum that 6.24r3 is slower than 6.23, and it seemed to related to this error. SMP was waiting for a manual restart.
I also found a question regarding memory allocation under 32 bit Windows, and SMP needed more memory.
It is a strange and under-reported problem.
