Got it.  I loaded it up and was working through a tut at DT and it white screened on me.

The teacher did say that Silo doesn't use resources well and it is not Mudbox or ZB.

I tried again with resource monitors.  Lots of page faults prior to crash.

Have two E5 2630 CPU's, win 7 ultimate, 64gram, GTX 780.  No reason for any app to run out of resources.

I noticed that silo used about 1/4 of the cpu capability during modeling and very little ram while it was building page faults.

From what I can tell, this app is robust when it comes to basic tools and custom interface.  Not quite there yet for a pro modeling app, but does combine some scultping and poly tools in ways that many pro apps don't.  If they fix the machine language, this app might do very well.
