My guess is that the autorouter did the 'elsie1' layout and you
did 'elsie2' manually.

In the 'elsie2' layout, there appears to be two unnecessary vias
under U2. I don't think the autorouter would have done that. (They
were probably the result of a crossing track that you later re-
routed.) The 'elsie2' layout has a few pads left unconnected which
are connected in 'elsie1'. It also uses varying track widths in
different portions of the same net.


Regards, Bob
