Just had my host upgrade me to 7.0.4 and I use gtmetrix.com to check my site page load times ect. Well my site page load time used to be around 5-6 seconds and page size about 400Kb now with the upgrade my page load times are way above 10 seconds and the page sizes have jumped to 600kb. Damn I really thought my site would be faster guess not. Maybe it will without any mods or custom templates but that would be boring :( anyway that's my experience with the upgrade..I supposed my site is better now see more only for the security enhancements and the anti-spam thing
