Hows the progress going with the speed download problem being fixed?

And is there any estimated date on which this fix may be releases?
 
Hello :)

I am using OW 5.6 SP6. I have recently started using Speed Download, and find that OW often hogs the CPU after handing the download over to SD. Closing the empty tab with the download-file link doesn't stop OW hogging. I have to quit OW completely.

This is a major nuisance. :(

Will it be fixed soon?

Damn. I was hoping this would get fixed in 5.6. It's the biggest reason I still use Camino most of the time instead of OW.

Looks like I'll have to do the same. :(
 
I've found I can work around this CPU problem by dragging the download link to the Speed Download Floater.
 
Please fix it soon if poss ;-) Given the choice, I'll stick with OW and just launch SD for large files... but a solution here would be great.

EDIT: Testing with SD 4.1.16 - we'll see…

You know, I've wanted to love OmniWeb for years now, but it's 3 years later and you _still_ haven't worked with the SD people to cure the 100% CPU suckage problem.

So, yet again, I reach to delete my trial and wait to see when somebody will decide this issue is worth fixing.
