We are still running the July release (20110714) and number 1 is an issue for us too! Running CRD as an NT service there are three processes running under the NT Service id. With a large report running this causes delays with other schedules even with 4 threads set.
Yeah thats cool. I haven't had a chance to get online with the CRD developers yet to trouble shoot it. They did say that they were able to duplicate the other issues and I am assuming they are working ona fix for those issues.
