Not exactly related to Announcement, but I remember when I first port DrGeo to Squeak (at that time Pharo did not exist) I used a lot of change/update when objects in the canvas changed. It was terribly slow, and later opted for a top-down update in the list of object.
So some sometime what look like a cool stuff (decoupled objects) is just a drag. Regarding optimizing, I share my opinion here months ago, I think Pharo need consolidation releases: no new features, only bugs fix and speed improvement. There are enough new features in Pharo for a couple of years, but the product need to *be* solid and *feel* solid.
