I'll try it. Are you aware of a command-line program I can run on Windows to
get those figures you're interested in?  That way, I'd be sure to have 'em (if
I automate their saving, every 30 minutes or so).

Dunno. I can't play long enough with the current binary -- waiting for the
next done by Dani [1].

With the previous ones, I'm not sure either. I don't have the impression I got
one with the trunk, but I'm quite sure as well I did not play long enough with
the trunk. So, we can't conclude that it has been solved, nor the opposite.

OK. Now, I can kill that instance, then?

Best regards,
