Or at least a hard stop on migrations until the performance characteristics were hashed out.

Sadly I noticed a while ago that Windows began to outrun Ubuntu on my older machines; it doesn’t seem like Canonical really cares about performance anymore.

To me, Ubuntu's glory days were with 10.04. It seemed much more polished than the alternatives at that time.

IIRC Shuttleworth took a more governance and less hands-on role after that, and Ubuntu started to focus on server and enterprise support.
