It did happen when migrating from Windows 7 to Windows 8. At least in terms of boot times, I'm unsure about general performance.

Same experience here. On a little netbook, Windows 8 had a small but noticeable performance boost over Windows 7.
windows 8 lasted about a week for me, then was the prompt that i took to toss it all away and swig deeply of the gnu koolaid.

i still have one w7 system to work with older machines, but its no more interesting than a screwdriver.
