SONAR Kingston will be coming later this month.

Nice!

Yup please keep that up. Thanks...

Without truly taking out the measuring stick, I've noticed a noticeable improvement in Sonar's overall performance with the last couple of releases, in combination with Windows 10.   Maybe it's Windows 10, maybe it's the updates to Sonar that take advantage of Windows 10.  Either way, Sonar cruises much faster in general now than when I was on Windows 7 several months ago.

Fantastic!  I like the emphasis on improving overall performance.
Thanks for passing along the info.

I hope the Bakers realize Sonar is the only reason preventing me from closing my credit card? :)

I've had the same experience with H, I & J.  Better performance buy a bit each release on 8.1.  Hopefully the K improvements aren't WinX dependent either.

Ditto - I'm still on Win7 for at least the near future.

is there some kind of download, or detailed info, to try the tests on user systems? tia
