As I said in the first post, the performance is still perfectly acceptable so I'm not going to spend a lot of time testing things. I just wanted to let you know in case other people were also seeing slower performance perhaps due to some misconfiguration.

But others are reporting improved performance. Maybe it's something like this (examples only, not actual figures):

Me: formerly under 0.25 seconds, now 0.25 - 0.50 seconds
Others: formerly 1.0 - 1.5 seconds, now 0.25 - 0.50 seconds

If someone else has seen improved performance, maybe they could give some idea of what their responses times used to be vs. what they are now.
