> Like there's some code there that says if running on 4S then run slow?
Yes. It was fast and I was extremely happy with it when I bought it. After the update, its slow.
To spell it out - One code path is fast, one code path is slow. They chose to force the latter upon us, as part of an intentional decision. I wish I could go back to the previous iOS version which was not slow, but Apple, intentionally block that with their DRM. Things which were instantaneous are now sluggish, ruining my experience after spending like 700 dollars. I could have gotten the same experience with an under-powered android phone for $50. Thanks Apple.
>I feel sorry for you.
How sorry do you feel? I mean .. thanks for being condescending and all, but I was just curious.
