Some optimizations might help a bit, but I think you are correct here. 
It is a good thing that hardware improves over time as well. :)

The fragments issues looks to be resolved, but needs some testing to be 
sure.  And wasn't there a report of odd captive portal behavior?  Which 
all brings us to the next point...

The bugs that are known, and repeatable.  Allong with the very small 
number of additional features, I think we need a lot of testing in 
different environments.  Something I will be looking at in a few 
production locations with the next beta release.  After all, only users 
can really break things. :)
