Maverick 0.51 - Bug Fix Release

Post by Steve Maughan »

This is a bug-fix release of Maverick (0.51). There was a nasty bug which in rare circumstance could cause a fatal crash.

Find out more here:

There is no real strength increase from the previous version.

Hi Wolfgang,

No need to retest. Although the 32 bit version runs at half the speed of the 64 bit code. So comes out quite a bit weaker.

Best Regards,

Steve

Hi Steve,

I'll try to make a test with x64 later when I have free CPU time on one of my 64bit-machines...
