Gnucash 2.4.10-1 Windows +MySQL GUI now hangs at various places... almost becoming UNUSABLE!

[Neil Marks]

Network related? Duh... I had the problem local to my system when 
running 2.4.10(&-1) with a local MYSQL DB backend, don't see much 
network involved here...  Reverting back to 2.4.8 meant the problem 
disappeared... guess I'll be staying on 2.4.8 for some time to come...
Regards,
Neil
