I have another, similar to the ones for NS above 4.0X: too much resource
usage.
I'll admit I didn't spend oodles of time on it. I installed it and ran it.
It wanted more of the system allocated than I was willing to give. I
trashed it.
If I overlooked something that can lower the threshhold, I'd be willing to
hear about it and try again. Else, it's not for me.
I have no disputes with your points. Only the issue mentioned.
