First post after longtime lurking with no user! :-)

I have a Mark 5 Aura, too (the original 2013 edition).

I'm also staying for the forseable future on 3.12.1: for it's stability and full (beta) features... not so much for it's perfomance.

Is this 4.6.9995 firmware version showing better performance than the good ol' 3.12.1?

I'm specially interested in the Collections response time; I usually wait for two minutes (or so) before I reach them. I do keep 14.774 books 239 collections, storing them on a 32Gb Class 4 uSD SanDisk Card that I manage with Calibre.

I've tried other firmware versions (including 4.5.9587 and 4.6.9960) but so far the Collections' access time doesn't improve (and I don't use the rest of the new features) so I keep downgrading to 3.12.1.

That being said: any advice on upgrading my Aura (or not) to this new firmware?

BTW: I'm chilean (spanish native speaker) so please forgive any mispelling or grammar errors; my written english is rather rusty.

Thanks in advance,

Incanus
