@dc42 I installed the 1.21.1RC2 update on the 0.8.5 Duet and it noticeably slowed down my Ormerod 2 just like 1.21.1RC1 did. Prints still turn out ok and everything else seems to be working as expected.
Do you mean that prints took longer, or something else?

Firmware Name: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet Firmware Electronics: Duet WiFi 1.02 or later Firmware Version: 2.0(RTOS)RC2a (2018-05-12b1) WiFi Server Version: 1.21 Web Interface Version: 1.21.1-RC4
With no problems. It did take a power cycle to get WiFi to reconnect, but this is not totally unusual.
No Prints Yet.

@dc42 Sorry that I was not clear. Yes the prints take longer. The first indication of a difference is evident by the sounds made by the steppers when the skirt around the part is laid down. It was quite noticeable to me right away. I ran a test piece from the reprap whistle.stl file on 1.21.1RC1 and 1.12.1RC2 and each took 51 minutes. The same piece on 1.21.1 took 45 minutes.

@dc42 Thanks for tip on the M558 parameter. I'm not sure what changed in the printer but changing M558 H from 10mm to 15mm fixed the issue. First time cal. after power up works fine now.

So now you need to run calibration, then run M665 and M666 without parameters and copy the values displayed to the M665 and M666 commands in config.g. Or, if you are using config-override.g, you can just use M500 to save them. After that you should be able to change your M558 H parameter back to a lower value, for faster probing.
