I haven't used it in ages, while it was better with tricky colors, the DPP was always lacking in terms of sharpness and detail, and SLOOOW… maybe I'll give it another try shortly if it's optimize now.
I tested on a photo of lichen on a dead tree, plenty of details, and DPP came out sharper than DxO. And then I realized later how to do USM in DPP 3 I was doing it wrong! But It's pretty easy to lose sharpness on defaults in both DPP 3 and 4.
Wasn't any slower than DxO and open source (2016?), probably faster then since I still used DPP 3, rememberDxO took ~5 minutes per file (!!!) on their top NR a selling point for the processor. DPP 3 is pretty lite, doubt you can use it on newer bodies though. I've certainly seen slowness on DPP 4 but on an older computer, even then not too terrible.
