2.0 is MUCH faster. The difference is unbelievable. We recently installed
2.0 on a customer system and I couldn't believe my eyes.
It's well worth upgrading your package; the 2.0 release provides near-MSDOS
speed on identical hardware (ie: you run nearly as fast on Xenix as you do
on MSDOS), and is still multiuser.
We've noted a couple of quirks, but no real bugs. Everything seems to work
just fine, even without a recompile.
