No, turbo mode is off.

I have not noticed an option for turbo mode in the newer snapshots, but I may have just missed it.

NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Please say it isn't true?!?!?!

Turbo is one of the things I like best about OI.

May has turbo and September has keypad lock..........now I can't decide!

Can anyone confirm or deny if Sept snapshot has turbo? If it doesn't, are there plans to bring it back? Where there any known problems with it that led to the decision to remove it? I have noticed every so often the page refresh seems to not be complete and there is a fully visible ghost image of the previous page but that doesn't bother me.

Folks, I'm concluding my test. After a few hundred page turns (equal for both versions) and 25 hours left on, they both dropped to 99% & then 98%. The May version actually dropped about 5 page turns sooner to 99% but only a couple sooner to 98%. IMO that is not a significant difference so I'm calling it equal.

Still wondering about the page turns being faster for the May snapshot (almost twice as fast & not using turbo mode).

I'm going to investigate this regression.

There is still no "turbo-mode" in recent snapshots, but I'll add it back soon.

So is there anyway to turn the clock off in the May snapshot? I've not been able to find it if there is.
