Hi all...
For those lucky ones with the new Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM, Lightroom 4.3 is now available in final release with a lens profile for that lens. Enjoy!

if someone could comment on this it'd be greatly appreciated - is the final version of Lightroom 4.3 any faster/less laggy than LR 4.2? My release candidate LR 4.3 definitely isn't..

The Develop module opens a lot faster for me, which was a bit of a pain for me i version LR 4.2. I have a fast pc, however, but LR4.3 feels fast and responsive. I got a small sample of D800 raw-files, and it doesn't choke on those at all, so I'm very happy.

now that I've had a chance to export a few thousand files on my custom built PC (very very clean system purely for editing), I can say that Lightroom 4.3 is still about 30-40% slower than Lightroom 3.6 - which was blazing fast on my new system.
I find the Develop modules slightly less laggier in 4.3 than in the RC 4.2 I was using prior to upgrading though..

Well, since you're speaking about export: You should keep in mind that the image engine was updated to Process 2012 i Lightroom 4.x, which is more CPU intensive/demanding than the one in Lightroom 3.x. So slower image processing is a given between the two programs. You can, however, still choose Process 2010 in LR4 and check if that is getting you closer to the speed you had in Lightroom 3.6.

There are a lot of new or larger (improved) features in the new version also. So it's not like it's the same software that are 30-40% slower.

With Windows 7 using the resource monitor from the task manager, you get some insight into how much disk processing is also going on with Lightroom, especially when syncing multiple images. I try to make sure anti-virus/malware stuff isn't scanning temp directories.

definitely valid points & i do (slightly) prefer the imaging engine in LR4 over the one in LR3 - i'm still hopeful that LR engineers can continue optimizing the software as further versions are released, however.
one of the huge advantages for using Lightroom was to speed up the editing/processing/exporting process prior to optional detailed retouching in Photoshop.. LR4 being considerably slower has been quite the pain in the ass frankly
