The solution is to not use fast mode

Hah, thanks! I came to that conclusion on my own pretty well
I realize I didn't really say as much, but I was more curious if folks had seen this behavior before, or if it was indicative of anything other than "just don't do that."

Thanks — I figured there was a way, but for some reason just wasn't having much luck with Google today.

Thanks for the links as well. Time to crawl a little deeper into the rabbit hole.

As an aside, I brought the 42S in to work today to see if I could figure anything out (I couldn't, so I just did a terminal-short to reset and then wrote a little (graphical) Monte Carlo pi simulation on my lunch break)… that meant I had 4 HP calcs on my desk… and I'm just a web developer!
