I certainly have to agree.  I just pulled the CVS version today and
switched from Debian Woody's stock 0.62-1.  I was able to switch versions
without even exiting my X session, and I noticed an immediate improvement
in responsiveness.  I had taken a previous vacation from following the
development versions as my system had developed a strange instability. 
Which, I'm happy to say had nothing to do with Blackbox or Debian.  Turns
out it was a bad portion of the drive being randomly hit by temp/cache
files from the look of it.

If only more customers/consumers really understood this.  I've worked for
the last 6 years in a support capacity of one form or another, and as you
can probably guess the seemingly endless string of complaints can grate on
a person.

Please accept my thanks.
