Yes everything is fine. I'm not stirring up trouble I'm making a report about an important software.

sigil 0.9.9 which is what Mint Linux installed with sudo apt-get install sigil

Earlier in the thread others said "I used just now to edit a big book and it worked."

Which makes me wonder about memory leaks. When I start sigil up with my book it works at first. Slowly for certain operations but it works. But if I leave the GUI up all day, so I can peck at the keyboard in between doing other things, it gradually gets noticeably worse.

Eventually, for instance trying to highlight a page section and then to click "edit cut" just freezes. A ghost edit menu will pop down with no lettering. 2 minutes later the menu will become active. This is a problem worth knowing about, for both users and developers.
