Re: Program verifier

[Stuart Rowe <rowestu@xxxxxxxxx>]

Same here, tried it a couple times but didn't see any remarkable benefit
that a compile wouldn't give me.  I never work offline. A compile is
usually quicker and doesn't tie up the editor.  The only time I use it is
to update the cache like every hour.  It's so out of date all the time that
the outlines are less useful with stale data.
