What is the old saying? "Under-promise, over-deliver" - we just posted the Update 1 for 2018 R2 to the AVEVA website:
https://softwaresupportsp.aveva.com/#/producthub/details?id=52935
It is available for download now.
The Equipment performance is a known issue (and in previous versions!) and something we hope to address in the future. I also use the work around of clearing Variable, Trend and Alarm DBs before doing a full Equipment update. It speeds things up a lot!
To your question about Composite Genie Editor/Creator, again it is on the backlog, and hopefully we can deliver something on this soon. I acknowledge that it is quite difficult to create your own from scratch.
I can't see any bug fixes to the IDE or hands, so it could be something specific in your environment. I'd recommend reaching out to Citect Support to try and troubleshoot it further.
