Hi Andy,
Thank you, I can confirm that FIT & CR2 now solve locally with the Downsample factor set to 2, so that is a huge relief.
Maybe it is something worth looking into at some point in future. I became accustom to solving speeds when I used the Blind Solver before, and it does seem to solve much slower now on the same Laptop. My jpg target library that solved fine before, now won't solve at all. For now I have a workaround, but it seems that some functionality has been lost along the way in one of the updates.
Thank you again for the help.
Regards
Martin
