Let me start off by saying that I have loved pretty much everything about Revelations. Even stuff that needs tweaking is pretty cool, and the devs seem to be doing a good job of fixing the major issues.
That said, I have noticed a problem with my overview, and it's one that is highly, highly annoying to me. No, it's not about wrecks or anything like that.
Put simply it's that stuff won't stay put in my overview. It bounces and shuffles up and down, with the order of objects of the same type rearranging themselves every few seconds (which occasionaly makes trying to select something on your Overview analogous to swatting a scuttling roaches) I'm not sorting my Overview by distance (which could produce this problem if I were moving), and it didn't happen before Revelations.
I noticed that all my pre-saved Overview settings got blasted in the upgrade, so I'm wondering if I just did something stupid when I was trying to re-create them all. Has anyone else noticed this behavior, or can anyone point me in the direction of how to fix it? Is this happening to everyone, or did I inadvertantly do something dumb?

I'm also having the same issues. I have my overview sorted by size - which size should almost never change - so it should keep everything int he right order. But I still see the shuffle - usually after I destroy an object or loot a canitem - it shifts everything all over again.
Also, I notice that my overview is always minimized when ever I log back into eve. Not a major issue, but just annoyign that i gotta get everything maxed to how I like it for gangs, drones, etc.

Mine isn't minimized when I log in, but it sounds like you're having the same issue that I am. Even when sorting by something where the order shouldn't change, it changes, often without any input from me.

Interesting.
I've had two problems with the overview lately. First is that the columns reset to odd sizes upon undocking. Minimizing and maximizing the view seems to resolve this issue. Second is that the overview completely falls out of sync with the game in situations of heavy load (combat with +10 objects in overview). The distances and states stop updating at all, and the only way to refresh the overview is to minimize and maximize again. Then distances, wreck status, etc are functional for a brief time.

I have this problem frequently as well. Not crippling, but still pretty darn annoying.

/signed.
It's been around for a long time. You can minimize the occurance by removing wrecks etc.
I Used to like playing with it sorted by icon, but it used to sort within that category by distance or some silly thing making me chase entries all over as they moved. I sort by name now and find the results mostly bearable, if not as useful.
Windows stealing focus and items moving when you mouse over are among the largest gripes I have interfaces.
Another suggestion for the overview I'd like is an option to make it not register clicks on objects in space that happen to lie behind the overview. It's a pain having to zoom out and spin the camera to ensure I lock what I want and not something that randomly gets in the way. (especially considering how much the game loves to show off its seamless map when your trying to just zoom out)
Yet another suggestion ease clicking on overview objects would be to allow us to undock each subcategory and put it where we want it.
All in all, I would welcome more control over the interface, the last patch no longer allows you to assign <shift>-<alpha-numeric> as a hotkey lol. I'd love an assignable key to the double-click operation, rather than randomly chaning my heading while clicking on other things;or watching a gang-mate go warping off instead of aligning like he wanted to.
If such things as listed exist, please let me know! There used to be a nice post about undocumented interface options like ctrl-click to lock etc.
-Happy holidays
On the plus side lag and queues have all but dissappeared for me since the last updates :)

Welcome to ccp's world of speedy UI hacks.
Speedy in the sense of 'What? The patch happens tomorrow? I am not half done yet with <insertNewFeature>!'.
--*=*=*--
The cause for this is not yet known, but we do have a possible fix in testing.

Next to the salvager icon UI problems this is another great annoyance. I just keep on collapsing and expanding the overview menu because the 'auto-updating' is not working properly.
Was hoping it would get resolved in the latest patch session. But patch was cancelled (only an optional one) and no new one is announced...
