Luckily today was a slow day at work so I did various benchmark tests both before and after installing SP1. This was all done on my Dell Inspiron E1705 laptop, Core 2 Duo 2Ghz CPU, 2GB RAM, and a freshly defragmented 200GB 7200RPM Seagate HD. Not a mobile Lan Party screamer, but it gets the job done well enough.
Boot times dropped, both with and without ReadyBoost enabled (using a 4GB 150x SD card) by about 10 seconds, ending up with 1:56 clean and 1:45 with ReadyBoost.
ATTO Disk Benchmark showed a .
Copying 1GB of JPG files from one partition to another dropped from 1:31 to 1:09, and to the network from 1:35 to 1:06.
3DMark06 scores very slightly increased, PCBench05 scores slightly decreased.
The graphics test in CoH OF went from 59.7/28.8/7.9 up to 59.7/28.9/9.2
So no huge improvements, but overall things are just a bit more snappy.
