I've read reports of sluggish behavior, modern pc requirements and the blockchain taking hours to download.  I would recommend some type of warning during the installation that would cover the following points:

- The full version of the client is recommended for (the target such as exchanges, delegates etc)
- The minimum requirements for the full experience are (ram, cpu etc)
- The first time downloading the blockchain may take ...   For a more responsive experience, please install the (point to the download page for lightweight and web clients)

Setting the expectation will save us pain down the road. I'd like to hear your thoughts.

This version is very very slooooooowww....

It has been synching for at least 6 hours.... I hope that this takes all this time just once. Other than that as a version it looks nicer...

Yeah, this.

I upgraded my memory from 4GB to 16GM and now the wallet works wonderfully.  Great update!

CLI works as expected. Always nice to see new commands.

I like the new GUI, but I have a couple of issues:

1.
The GUI on Firefox is dead slow. I see a constant 100% CPU usage when the gui is loaded in firefox. Chrome handles it very well though.

Linux Mint 17.1
Firefox version 35.0.1
Build identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:35.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/35.0

2.
When first unlocking (going past the welcome screen), the main account in the wallet is active (shown on the upper right corner near the "Lock" button). This is expected, but after clicking on the main account and choosing a different active account, now the only way to go back to the main account is only possible by going to the Dashboard and actually clicking the main account on the Accounts list. IMO it should also be available from the drop down on the upper right like all other accounts.

I lost all my account and balance in GUI after I update 0.6.1, , I know my account and balance did not lose, because I can see it in command line . but the feeling was so bad
I think we would do better

I restart several times, account back in GUI, I don`t know what is wrong

so far it starts not faster then before

- after starting it is always "not connected" and starts minutes later to resyn

what i really don't like is the market section

are anyone of the devs using the GUI to trade? I am pretty sure they don't!

why?

- if i want to buy, sell or short i have to scroll down a full page to get the available sizes and prices.
- in this version i can't click onto the offers and the don't get included into the boxes (this is not an improvment)

trading should be easy, but it is overgrouded with unneeded infos and needs long times to load.

why not just copy good examples from other trading plattforms?

Brian and Cass already worked on something, but i have the feeling anything is done 5 times, like the next new homepage we need.

There needs to be something like a simple level II quote display. Color code it with buys being green, covers dark green, sells red, and shorts in dark red. It would be a nice concise picture of the real market without looking at full bid/ask displays for shorts, buys and sells.

First impressions 0.6.1.

Very Impressive. I like the new markets page with the Market-Pegged assets listings. Nice to see the Oil feeds increasing.
Any plans for wallet keyboard shortcuts:

eg for starters

F1 Dash
F2 Exchange
F3 Delegates
F4 Transfer
F6 Console

Where is the console and block explorer? Cant find them in 0.6.1

OK, found the Console in the Drop down list of accounts under Advanced Settings. And then the block explorer link takes me to BitsharesBlocks. I don't like that the blockexplorer is sent to a third party. SVK's site is great but I think the way it was is better than linking to an exterior website.
