Did this update actually fix any bugs, or are we all getting suckered into believing that the update has made things snappier?

For me, things are much snappier thanks to this update and as of today, I cannot report any crashes whatsoever.

Contacts load noticeably quicker, I can drag an app icon across multiple pages in one motion, rather than having to drag it, drop it, pick it up again and drag it over to next page, and repeat. That was annoying.
