New 3DS update apparently boosts performance of certain software

The latest 3DS update may have been more significant than originally thought. After applying the update, it seems as though some software have seen a performance boost.

Rayman 3D and Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed are two big names that are being thrown around as running much smoother. Mii Plaza is supposedly better off now as well.

Is this something that anyone else has noticed?
