I'm sorry if I'm out of line, but were not running a 'Triple-A' game here. It's a 'tool' to get a job done, and one is hardly going to be living in that tools space?, so what does it matter if it takes longer to load, or is slower than the previous version? Surely, the most important thing is that, it does what you want it to do, no?
I really couldn't give a toss if it loads slower, nor do I for any 'animations' lol!
The end result is my 'final OS image', and that is all that matters to me, for which, this 'tool' excels.
I'd rather more time spent on preventing nonsense crap, than tying a Dev up with stuff that just ain't important
