AW: How do you handle the poor performance of LC 7?

[tbodine]

Thanks, Richard. Here are the basics:
* Platform Win 7, 64-bit machine
* Running LC 7.0.5 (rc2)
* Bug report of these crashes:
http://quality.runrev.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15418
* The application is a quiz application that lets the user to create quiz
content and customize its presentation. It's been in development starting
with LC 5.5 about two years ago. I moved it to v7 to make use of the Unicode
support, which has worked great. (The app has no database or network
functions.)

All crashes (so far) have been in the IDE, not in standalones. Crashes are
usually triggered just by using the IDE's menubar. For instance, sometimes
when several controls are selected and I want to align them, clicking the
menubar to access the alignment cmd will trigger a crash. (But not always.)
Other times, clicking menubar to access Save cmd will do it. Another crash
came from trying to select some output text from the message box.

That's the maddening thing. Actions that works fine much of the time will
suddenly yield a crash. For instance, saving a stack in the the IDE from the
menubar. (Now I do all my saves from the keyboard shortcut.) So what all the
crashes have in common is an action involving use of the mouse.

Thanks for any insights on this.
