IOS – Does iOS 4.2 improve performance on the iPhone 3G

iosiphoneperformance

I've "inherited" an iPhone 3G from a friend who upgraded to iPhone 4. He had complined about the slowness of iOS 4. Although I personally have no problems with it, I was wondering if iOS 4.2 offers any noticeable performance improvement. Does iOS 4.2 improve performance on the iPhone 3G?

From the iLounge article

Thus far iOS 4.2 appears to perform as well as iOS 4.1 did under similar conditions. Performance even on older devices such as the iPhone 3G is the same as iOS 4.1 and thus far we haven’t observed any significant changes in battery life.
