you said that build 0821 is "0816 + limited range fix + rotated font fix and nothing else" so i will report my findings here, otherwise i would not bother you with this.

i am using a texture-heavy skin (aeon nox 4 derivative) on a not-so-small library (less than 1TB).
i have lots of widgets enabled which show movie posters, album covers etc.
i get more skipping/choppiness/stuttering using build 0821 when navigating main menu than with build 0816.
in the meantime i put 2nd memory stick in my nuc (which didn't change anything), so i guess my hardware side is fine.

when i enabled useddsfanart in advancedsettings.xml and changed default skin backgrounds (which are not fanart so are "not DDSable", at least by default)
the stuttering completely stopped, now i have main menu smooth like butter.

i guess you will point me to the skin support thread, but in my case there is a clearly visible perf difference between 0816 and 0821.
