My speed improvements were quite specific to the ui of
an application (not RBs fault).
I have a window with buttons along the bottom and a
three tab tab-control above. The tabsheet area needed
to be quite large and required a scoll bar for most
resolutions. The user required only the contents of
the tabs to scroll (not the tabs themselves and not
the buttons along the bottom). This ui is similar to
RBs 2006 IDE. RBs IDE can scroll much faster then mine
though.
Anyway, I needed to handle object moves, and visible
states. When I stopped blindly setting my objects, I
had a 6 - 10 times (600% - 1000%) improvement on the
scroll (1.6 secs down to 0.16 secs - also depends on
the size of the window), and a 4 - 7 times improvement
on tabbing (as each tab remembers it's current scroll
position).
This is not a result of going from r2 to r3. Just a
result of better coding.
As for the r2 to r3 improvement, I haven't done any
load testing. I have just noticed futher improvement
in speed (I can work faster etc).
