Batch
- Modified FTP settings to allow overriding of port for SFTP; previously it was hardcoded to port 22 only
- Added error catching for file functions
- Added batch-specific INI [Options] setting for a bursting batch called "BurstMethod" to set to either ONE-PASS or MULTI-PASS. In general, our new ONE-PASS option (which is the default) will be faster (significantly faster), but we have seen cases where MULTI-PASS is faster if the size of the report is extremely large (many, many MBs).
- We've added some time stats that display at the end of a bursting batch in the log file that will show total bursting time and average bursting time per GH1 value (this aids in testing and choice of #3 above); just do a find on the word "STATS" in the log file to jump to these values
- We removed a hard-coded one second delay between bursts. For quick bursts, sometimes this one second delay was longer than the actual bursts. This delay was previously done for animation/communication purposes of the application and to allow for cancelling a burst, but this is no longer necessary. For quick bursts, you will notice it is significantly faster.
- We added additional log file messages; most notably for displaying fields found in the first record of the report when fetching variables

This is not a critical update, but is highly recommended.
