Antonio,

There is some incremental consistency checking feature in the 1.5.2 release;
have you looked at the example programs in the distribution? I don't think
this is exactly what you want, but it may give some ideas.

The other point is that, if possible, we'd like to see the ontologies you have
where Pellet isn't performing acceptably, for testing, analysis, etc. If you
could provide pointers to them, that would really help.

Cheers,
Kendall Clark
