I ran the latest update to the tokenizer and here is a summary of the 
parse times.
Ver 3.7.0
   Parse Time:       0 hours  5 minutes 11 seconds (311.541 seconds)
Ver 3.8
   Parse Time:       0 hours  3 minutes 50 seconds (230.366 seconds)
Ver x.tokenizer.9999
   Parse Time:       0 hours  4 minutes 18 seconds (258.998 seconds)
Ver x.tokenizer.9673626
   Parse Time:       0 hours  3 minutes 19 seconds (199.541 seconds)


Aside.
I run Throttle.exe to monitor my CPU and GPU temperatures. I noticed 
that during the rendering of the scene. My CPU was being throttled back 
when I was using Ver 3.8 and the tokenizers. I cleaned my fans and 
filters last week so I don’t think it is an airflow problem.
Has anyone else noticed an increase in temperature with 3.8?
