I use Gimp on an almost daily basis, and have been using the beta for months, side by side with the old to see where they have improved. I didn't see a major difference on old or new hardware.

That's interesting. I may be exaggerating a bit when I say 3x slower start-up time. It's probably only like 1.5x slower.

In my experience though, most people just don't even notice that software is getting buggier and slower over time.
