abstract Since the presentation in St.Vigil Pathfinder has evolved. The first prototype has grown into a system, which stands before its first release. New methods like join detection, looplifted path steps and order awareness helped us to overcome our performance problems. This presentation provides a short overview of the applied optimizations and concludes with a comparison between different systems, which shows that we are following a promising path.
