Are there any known outstanding bugs? Thanks! -=R

I have code developed in 1.9.0-1 that ran a series of benchmarks fine with it, but some of the benchmarks inexplicably produce SEG faults in version 1.9.0-2 thru 1.9.0-5. My code and benchmarks can now run with no problems in 1.9.1-preview1 but the benchmark times are reproducibly slower (by 10-20%). So its great to see 1.9.1 can run my code cleanly, but I hope future versions also become as fast, or faster than, 1.9.0-1.
