Outlook 2007 Performance Patch (KB993493) - My Outlook Is Much Brighter

Friday I saw the release of KB993493 (Update for Outlook 2007 (KB933493)), but thought to wait to see how it faired in the real world.

Based on the positive things I'm seeing (from Scott, Steve, Neowin, etc), I went ahead and upgraded...

Wow

The "feel" of my Outlook is now much snappier. It seems to start faster, download messages from Exchange faster and folder switching and undoing also seem much faster (all the things promised in this release).

If you are using Outlook 2007, have good sized OST or PST's and feel your Outlook is a little sluggish, then this is an update you should seriously consider.
