from the Mac app store my update was only like 30 megs.


Mine was about 15 megs. I thought in Lion only the updates were downloaded instead of the entire app. Seems to work well.

Still no iCloud support?


In iPhoto? You do realize Photo Stream (in iPhoto) is part of iCloud, right?

I sure wish Apple would release an Aperture update to address the crashing issue.

So thats why it was always crashing on my iMac. Was going crazy trying to figure out why mine was crashing and my other 2 computers were not.

I gave up last week and just started using Aperture.

Anyone know if the Perian plugin (which includes 3ivX functionality) would cause the crashing behaviour?

No, Perian including 3ivx capabilities doesn't mean it include the 3ivx plugin, it just means it can decode the same video format, but without causing any issue.

Anyone else having a problem with the update hanging while "Moving items into place"?

It's happened to me twice now, once with software update and again with the stand-alone installer.
