Ciao Jeremy, Thomas & Mark H. Just a general comment.
Since TW is one file running in a BROWSER it makes sense to HONE usage to match what you need do most often. In my use of TW I switch OFF as much as possible PART of the issue is the sheer INEFFICIENCY of major browsers at memory handling. TBH browsers (Firefox, Chrome) cause me more hassle than most anything else on my computer now. Their memory architecture is pathetic. There is a lesson in that, because TW can only function as well as its host. What is my point? That some issues in TW are nothing directly to do with it, but essentially current browser limits.
