Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual

We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.

Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.

Hi all,

My new image processing workstation is at last being built by Velocity PC. The disk configuration will be a 1-Terabyte SSD boot drive, 2 1-Terabyte SSDs in RAID 0 configuration, and a 10 Terabyte mechanical HDD. 

My plan was to use drive 1 for software, the RAID array for all processing, and the HDD for bulk storage of all my raw files and final images. What I was wondering was, does it make sense to move all the image files for an object to the RAID array for processing or can I leave them on the HDD and just keep the working directories on the array? Or is there a better way to go?

Thanks, Wayne

Good question, I think you can indeed load images in from another internal drive as long as your working directory is on your fastest drive. You may check using some disk utility perhaps to see where all the disk activity is taking place during processing to be sure.
