ZPE 1.14.4 is a big update. It mainly focuses on performance but also on integration with VWS.

First performance. This is big. Running the Standard Algorithms library in ZPE 1.14.3 took an average time of ~600ms. With ZPE 1.14.4, the mean time is now ~350ms. This is a massive improvement. ZPEX has gone from 30ms to 23ms to run the same library too. 

VWS has recently been revisited, so ZPE's support for VWS has been improved. New session variables, cookies and much more have been added to ZPE. ZPE's web performance has also been improved. As well as this, in addition to the YASS Web Pages (ywp) files you can create, you can now also compile these to YASS Executable Pages (yep) files for up to 5x faster processing. Nice.

ZPE now has a new --tools option for special tools in ZPE. ZPE --install now actually installs ZPE. ZPEC has been improved too, offering much better and faster performance than before. LAMEX3 comes to ZPE - 'improved' by ChatGPT (although performance has occasionally been lower than LAMEX2, I am working to ensure it is consistently faster than X2).

ZPE 1.14.4 will be out very soon, as I am just adding the finishing touches.
