    Nope. This is a known issue, there is a memory leak somewhere and it causes a sever slow down. If you're getting an hour into before this you're doing extremely well, for me i have to restart about every 15 minutes! It happens more when you use the back button lots, going into actors and then returning! Encase you arent aware ... save every 5 minutes or so and have a backup copy as well.

    i presume you meant "severe" not "server"? ;)

    what's annoying is the one time i ran "top" in a terminal window to keep an eye on the memory, it all carried on working fine without slow down... but yes sometimes it becomes unusable.:S I blamed this on me running on an Intel PC though

    Yep its a known problem, we are waiting for the GS team to plug those leaks, my GS creaps slower and slower after about 10 mins.

    TIP 1: Regular restarts of the GS App until its fixed will speed things up for you.

    TIP 2: This is still Beta software so make regular backups of your project file just to be safe!

    Thanks
