BitShares 0.5.0 Feedback

[Troglodactyl]

Linux Mint 17.1 64bit

Mostly looks good so far.

It crashed when I filled an order shorting to myself.  I refused its request to reset the db on relaunch and shorted to myself again and it crashed again.  Relaunched and refused to reset again, and all the orders look like they went through fine.

The open margin orders list shows my call prices at 2x the feed price at entry, while the help text seems to indicate it should be 1.5x.

so far it looks like the same problems as the last release.  I can't get synced enough to broadcast.  the chain stalled out at 45 days left. over 2 gig memory usage.  high cpu consumption.  can't quit the program without a crash.  program unexpectedly quits without any messages.  various elements of the GUI freeze while others still work.

win7 / 32 bit

Installed over 0.27.1...started with error that apparently destroyed the previous database.

Downloading the chain again... taxing my CPU at 25-60%, 1086 MB of memory [and growing] and spinning my hard drive like there is no tomorrow...

137 days left....will report in a week or so with updates... or not if my laptop explodes and gets on fire....

{EDIT}

Extinguished all the flames coming out of the device...
Copied the last available good database in the app/whatever/ folder...

Not very supportive version it seams...insists on downloading the whole chain...

{Edit2}
With the fire-extinguisher in my hand patiently waiting for the process to end... occasionally putting down a flame or two :)
Just 172 days to go...
