3.0.1

17179869184GB

Oh well, Aperture 3.0 release was quite hectic and generated a lot of hair pulling and swearing. And I was certainly not spared.

Among other problems, was the fact that Aperture 3’s memory usage was quite insane and he sometimes even claimed it needed insane storage space, for the sole purpose of Library upgrading.

For example, a user got this quite disturbing request, trying to upgrade a vault he just created:

"Not Enough Disk Space

The vault “ApertureVault” does not have enough space to hold your library.

17179869183.16 GB is needed, but only 68.86 GB is available."


The hilarious answer of a contributor made me laugh and certainly helped lighten the mood, in those days:

Hello Reebo:

I think this is just another example of excess complaining. Disk storage is cheap. I think you should just run out immediately and but a new 17179869184GB disk drive.

Just my 2 cents

Fortunately, the 3.0.1 update solved most, if not all problems. And I’m now patiently waiting for the last faces to be detected, for the second time. And this time’s will be the good one.
