In summary, the conversation discusses issues with the TIRPN app on a TI89 Titanium calculator. The app runs slowly and causes the busy indicator to stay on, but it does function and the calculator returns to normal speed when the app is exited. The user wonders if there is a problem with the app or if their calculator is trying to crash. They also mention that TIRPN is an rpn environment and seems to be the best option among similar apps. There is not much information available about others experiencing difficulties with TIRPN.

I loaded TIRPN on my TI89 Titanium, and when it runs, the busy indicator stays on and the app runs very slowly. VERY Slowly. But it does function, and I can exit the app back into the regular worktop and the system recovers its speed. My calc is not fully loaded down with apps.

Is something wrong with the app, maybe, or is my calculator trying to crash? Any Ideas what I should do?

I forgot to mention, TIRPN is an rpn environment. It appears to be the best one, from what I could tell (as there are more than half a dozen to choose from). There isn't much out there saying people have had a hard time with it.
