Along with that, not sure if I set a rule wrong, but I had it set to go to silent for hours of work and it doesn't work. Is a reboot (restart of the daemon) needed to make a rule work? I think I did it anyway (can't quite remember) but the phone doesn't go to silent.

If you're sure the rule is enabled and the daemon is running it could be a bug. If it's supposed to be only time based make sure the other location and calendar stuff is disabled and let me know the times you entered so I can verify it works or not. The logic is confusing for that part, maybe I missed something.
The GPS logic is very simple, however, at least on my end. I don't really want to blame Nokia because it is difficult to prove, but I'm pretty sure whatever you're looking at is caused by the CPU usage of their positioning daemon. It is indeed quite "high" (meaning greater than zero) when it's been told not to track satellites and that we only want to know the position every minute or two. I'm not sure exactly what to do about that...

-edit- I found and fixed the bug for the time rule not activating / deactivating.
