[Cuis-dev] VectorGrahicsPlugin Troubles (WAS: Re: A few tweaks to preferences)

[Juan Vuletich]

Before testing, always check that you are using the latest. These last 
few days I have been pushing a lot of stuff!

Same when testing Haver. Any testing of VectorGraphics in Haver should 
be done including the latest changests from Cuis and the latest version 
of VectorEnginePlugin. And the latest version of the plugin itself.

Something else to note. I believe you are using the v3 image, right? The 
spur images (-32 and no suffix) can pin objects, meaning that all the 
large arrays are pinned, won't be moved by GC. This means less stress 
for the GC, and it also means that pointers to them won't move. So, 
different flavors of the image might crash under different 
circumstances. Just to keep in mind when testing.

Thanks,
