I am noticing that my ram usage is less. In 7137, it was always around 35%, so far in 7201, its around 26%. Anyone else?

Comments like this really need to stop imo. What makes you guys so sure that it's suddenly faster than another build? You're all just imagining it.

Even perceived speed is valid. Besides, we don't fully know the entire changelog and comments (all comments) help paint a picture. Faster for some, maybe not so much for others. It's all about perceptions and that works just fine.

Not really seeing any major differences here, but that is to be expected this late in the dev process.

Are they even planning on changing the icons? Or the stupid fish wallpaper?

The fish is a betta fish, get it? An obvious 'inside joke' that won't last although I imagine it will be in the RTM as an option.

No they don't, it's called feedback. Would you like everyone to post benchmarks and graphs displaying the increase/decrease in performance? And what makes you so sure they're "just imagining it"?
