I ran tests with "old" and "new" Dektol this weekend. The only difference, as it turns out, appears to be the packaging! When diluted 1:2, both produce maximum black at around 90 seconds; my standard developing time of 120 seconds/2 minutes is sure to develop the paper to completion. The yellowing I noticed between prints on the viewing stand was more a function of time in the (rapid) fixer bath. If I fix for a full minute, there is little discernible yellowing, and all of it disappears after a few minutes in circulating wash water.
