Version 3.5 uses the new binary database format and achieves the following results compare to the previous version 3.0.1:

• 2 times smaller database size
• 5 times faster database load time on startup!

It is fully backwards compatible with 3.0.1 and 2.x database formats and silently converts your old database to the new format on the first load.

Additionally the new version fixes the bug in version 3.0.1 sometimes manifested when removing and then adding folders before building the new database which resulted in incorrectly built database. 

The next version 4.0 is currently under development and it will have the following features:

• The ability to open multiple databases
• The ability to exclude certain folders during build to avoid excessive search results output
• Fully configurable OS and language search options (which are currently disabled for public version)

PDBFinder upgrade is available for download from Citrix support.

If you still use version 2.x there is some additional information about features in version 3.5:
