Following is a list of additions to Sybase Central and Interactive SQL introduced in version 11.0.0.
New fast launcher strategy Previously, the Interactive SQL and Sybase Central fast launchers were started when a user logged in. Now, fast launchers are started only when Interactive SQL or Sybase Central is started. Then, the fast launcher continues to run for 30 minutes (configurable) after the application is shut down. This new strategy speeds up subsequent launches of Interactive SQL and Sybase Central done within the 30 minute window. See Using the fast launcher option.
