I do know that users are interested in performance gains - and it is
definitely user facing - and as such I try to include these things in
the release announcement (which I'm currently drafting) as part of
making the release available. Similarly, we do need to use discretion
with how we discuss performance enhancements in the release announcement
to ensure we make directionally accurate claims and look towards broad
impact.

I've noted the claims on upper/lower; we'll see if it makes the cut in
the release announcement.

Thanks,
