I can't comment on this issue, but if you want to get an idea of how a company can take over an excellent software and ruin it making it beefier and slower, just take a look at the wonderful snappy gem that was Cool Edit Pro and what it became after being morphed into Adobe Audition.

I still have an installer and valid license for the last version of Cool Edit Pro. So glad I hung on to it!
