Update on my experience with version 8.5
1. It looks like Foxtrot slow down and become unresponsive when either: (1) Launching Foxtrot (2) Quitting Foxtrot (3) Switching from Foxtrot window to another application window. In particular, I'm seeing that the file {home}/Library/Preferences/com.ctmdev.FoxTrotPro.prefs gets rebuilt whenever this happens, because it looks like it gets re-written.
2. Search index continues to load inconsistently, and it continues to ask login credential for "My Computer".
Downgraded to version 8.0.2
1. I'm desperate to get Foxtrot working again, so I downgraded from 8.5 to 8.0.2.
2. Search indexes are loading normally, Foxtrot seems responsive, and saved search history & bookmarks are preserved.
3. Version 8.0.2 seems to work just fine, and this is what I would expect when I do a normal upgrade.
PLEASE fix whatever is the problem that occurs after version 8.0.2, because I do appreciate some of the value-added features like Compendium, but I cannot use it right now.
