Starry Night Software, slow?

Does anyone here have any trouble with the new version of Starry Night? It's a great program that interacts with the control of the telescope well but it can run quite slow at times!

There is also an issue where the program becomes unresponsive as the window of the application thinks it's behind other opened applications in Windows the only way to fix is it to reboot the laptop.

Is the SkyX any good or other programs?

I may need to get a more powerful laptop as well.

I use a program called TaskInfo to increase the priority of StarryNight 7 to 'High'. Makes it run perfectly...
