Updates to Vantage, Analyzer & Live

We’ve issued a bunch of auto updates for nearly all WebSpy products today

Of particular note is a fix to the Vantage range:

  • Fix: Improved partition matching when filtering by a date range

This will benefit you if you’re running reports with a date range filter such as last week or yesterday (which is pretty much everyone), and are using the default storage partitioning scheme of “Date” (again… pretty much everyone).

There was an issue in Vantage’s partition filtering technology which meant that if you specified a date range filter, Vantage would still analyse an entire storage, instead of just the date partitions you selected in the filter.

So do a Tools | Check for updates to grab build 2.1.2.12 and you should see a significant speed improvement in report generation. Woo hoo!

Here’s more details on the changes:
