- Overhauled the UI for loading comparison snapshots, offering a clearer understanding of their functionality.
Script Module:
- Improved execution speed for scripts with multiple batches (i.e., GO statements) � witnessing up to 25x speed improvement in certain cases.
- Enhanced UI feedback; if a SQL connection drops during a query, the UI identifies and displays this.
- The progress area now displays the count of batches and indicates which batch is currently in execution.
- Real-time results updates for long-running queries ensure that users know the progression.

- Fixed an intermittent issue that halted queries in Advise if a query was terminated and swiftly restarted.
- A bug that occasionally bypassed database file size checks has been addressed.
