===== Changes =====



==== Speed, Speed, and more Speed!! ====



We have made some major improvements in the area of Speed with this release. Below outlines some of those changes without going into too much technical detail.

**Changes under the hood**:
  * SQL Data Retrieval
  * SQL Data Writing
  * Dirty State Tracking
  * Caching

**Approximate speed improvements in different areas of the program are defined below**:



Starting Control - 85%



Loading 50 orders in Explorer - 75% faster



Opening an existing order - 65% faster



Editing and saving an order with 100 line items - 80% faster



Caution: what's only a bit faster:
  * Creating a large order - sorry, only 20% faster.
  * Converting an estimate - sorry, only 20% faster.



Most other areas of the program - 40-90% faster!
