I just returned to see this thread.
Wha! Frodo is about to jump ship?
MOTU company, y'all better take heed!

Yikes!
Jumping ship is probably overstating things more than a bit. The beach balls have impeded my work in DP6, so I've been completing all of my work in DP5.13. I've had Logic since v5.x, but have been using it more as a utility for certain types of processes and tasks. Jumping ship? Not at all. Sailing with a foot in two boats is probably closer to the truth.

But we now have the long-awaited DP 6.02 update, so let's see how that fares.
6,1 MacPro, 96GB RAM, macOS Monterey 12.7.6, DP 11.33

That makes sense.
You have contributed so much here, that I was worried you might me leaving.
That would be a bummer for all of us.
Is 5.13 stable for you?
How do you divide tasks between Logic and DP? That sounds intriguing.

Thanks
All is well
