This is an issue (trivial one though) that needs to be fixed for 0.9 Release, will be rerolling the release today (in the next few hrs) and putting out a new release candidate in staging.
Thanks for reporting this Andrew P. On Monday, January 20, 2014 12:34 AM, Andrew Palumbo <ap....@outlook.com> wrote: I ran through the tests with on a CentOS VM AMD64 2 cores 4 GB RAM.
