Well well, quite interesting indeed. I've just spent the last 60' - 90' doing my usual Saturday morning reading [= working my way through a set bookmarks list] using my Nightly rather than V-SS once i read this, so i could evaluate.
Obviously this is entirely subjective & qualitative, & might well be just a placebo-effect in action, but, fwiw... my Nightly genuinely now feels much snappier wrt loading new pages, & doing normal navigation in-page. On this initial unprofessional assessment, i'm quite impressed.
