Isn't this software "update" you are recommending a Beta version? Hasn't it been 
a Beta version for a very long time now? I'm normally reluctant to install a 
beta versions of software because it implies to me that the developers aren't 
quite sure whether its right yet, although it is tempting given the reported 
increase in speed for the print profiler. 
Don't let the Public Beta title concern you; its a beta only in the sense that it was never finalized onto CDs, its as final as any software version we have ever posted to the website.

Grateful for your views on why it isn't yet a version recognised as a true 
update by the software updater.
