I noticed that LauncherPro has been acting weird. It'll constantly restart (the icons would disappear then reappear in 5 seconds), it'll lag at redrwaing the widgets/icons when rotating the screen, and it'll force close on me once or twice a day.
I have been having multiple force closes a day. When I exit an app there is a delay loading my icons. Swiping to others screens is laggy/sluggish. I just wish he would revert the app back a few updates. It was perfect. As he adds more options it is getting worse.

Why struggle with LP when ADW is by far the best launcher out? I've tried LP and it sucks really bad...
That is a matter of opinion. I used ADW for a bit and it is better in some regards but over all i found LauncherPro much smoother and faster.
Exactly the same impressions here. LP is MUCH faster for me running Milestone at 800MHz or 1GHz.
Perhaps you had LP & ADW installed at once.. sometimes lag is caused by having 2 launchers on your phone at the same time. This is why a system version of ADW is available. My phones flies and I am using an HTC Magic, it's not even OC'd.
I think the update to 0.6.3 fixed the issues - it did for me.
Also for me, running very smooth.I think the update to 0.6.3 fixed the issues - it did for me.

Just installed the update and so far so good but it hasn't been all that long.

I thought it did too until I exited out of the facebook app. It took 10+ seconds until I was able to swipe screens.
just had my first force close, exited out of handcent and LP force closed.
i've had multiple force closes even after this newest update. it even force closes when i'm not using the home screen. on two occassions it'll force close when i uninstall an app while in the Market.
i'm using ADW and it's noticeably slower :/ the customizations are better though.

ADW flies like it was fueled by octane! Tell me if you are using the system or the standalone version? Having 2 launchers installed will slow the phone. Having ADW installed as the system launcher will cause your phone to fly... better hold it down with something!
