				2015-02-09 - ImageJ 2.0.0-rc-24 released
Today, the ImageJ team is pleased to announce a new public release candidate for ImageJ2: version 2.0.0-rc-24.
What's new
First pass to reduce SCIFIO overhead:
- Fixed a bug resulting in 2-second timeouts when calling SCIFIO from a macro (b83c41e5).
 - Improved caching of common data (boosts performance throughout ImageJ2) (7ae4103a...24051249).
 - SCIFIO configurations use more sensible defaults, favoring performance.
 - For some highly unscientific benchmarks of performance, see right.
 
First wave of improvements from 2015-01 Konstanz ImageJ Ops hackathon
- Better op code generation layer via Groovy parser (c51ce639).
 - Divide built-in op implementations into namespaces (4e4a9e2f).
 - Improve the project's build time (1c9d1d05).
 - Better error messages when ops don't match (4de825c6).
 - Support for unary & binary arithmetic with primitives (af05aff6).
 - New kernel implementations + FFT ops (6c01f0ba, 61062163, e5567c3e).
 
Updated messages for Refresh Menus & related commands to be more user-friendly (hopefully).
What's next
Looking ahead at short-term goals:
- Fixes/improvements for command-line functionality.
 - More SCIFIO performance improvements.
 - An automated troubleshooter to improve the average user experience.
