    I have only ran it once just to get rid of my windows old folder and yes it ran quick, I normally use CCleaner for cleaning up the disk as a regular tool.

    Yes there has been huge improvements in that - a lot has to do with the built in mechanism Compact.exe, which compresses files thus making cleanup a lot faster. It's an awesome utlity, but that's a different topic.

    I normally run it in extended mode from Admin command prompt, gives more options:
    %SystemRoot%\System32\Cmd.exe /c Cleanmgr /sageset:35 & Cleanmgr /sagerun:35

    In general I find Windows 10 runs faster than Windows 8.1, very pleased so far.

    One thing I noticed, is that the 3rd party Disk Optimizers for Windows 10 no longer "defragment" a drive, instead they "reclaim space". I have Perfect Storage running on a schedule and it's reclaimed a lot of space so far.
