PCSX2 SVN r4572 is released. PCSX2 is an open source PlayStation 2 (PS2) emulator for the Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems. With the most recent versions, many PS2 games are playable (although speed limitations have made play-to-completion tests for many games impractical), and several games are claimed to have full functionality.

PCSX2 SVN Changelog:
r4572
Patch by Firnis:
He wrote his own, faster replacement for std::vector and used it for the EE and
IOP block managers.
This cuts down compiling time for some blocks from nearly 1 second to ~ 0.1 -
0.3 seconds.
With this shorter compiling time, audio and framerate should be more stable when
changing levels in a game, for example.

Thanks a bunch, Firnis ;)
