Aperture 3.0.1 available now in Software Update

Although Aperture 3 introduced a lot of new features, it also introduced a lot of bugs. Apple's support forums have been abuzz with reports of memory leaks and issues with the new Faces functionality. Aperture 3.0.1 has arrived in Software Update, and Apple's support document for the update details several fixes for its flagship photo-processing program. Hopefully it addresses the two biggest issues users have faced: virtual memory growing out of control and consuming all free space on the hard drive, and Aperture libraries being invisible in Media Sharing if Faces is activated.

Let us know how your update goes in the comments.

UPDATE: Many users are saying that if you are running the unactivated trial version of Aperture 3, Software Update will fail to install the update. Instead, you'll have to re-download the complete Aperture 3 trial, which has itself been updated to 3.0.1.

Clicked Install in Software Update and it's hung for over half hr doing nothing. Quit 2 times before and this time I'll just let it be for some more time.

For me, kinda like Aperture 3 itself... crazy hangs. At least it doesn't eat up my entire disk like A3

Restarted and then the Update installed quickly.
First impressions - Much snappier.
Still too scared to turn on 'Faces'. Might take a chance soon.

Update went smoothly. I fail to see any changes with Manage My Places though.
