310.90 WHQL released

I updated from 310.70 WHQL to 310.90 WHQL. Apparently went without a hitch both on a 32bit WinXP setup and 64bit Win7 setup. Now, many of you aren't all that eager to update working setups "just because", but this little tidbit in the release notes convinced me to go for it:
Adds a security update for the NVIDIA Display Driver service (nvvsvc.exe).
I have no idea what kind of vulnerability got patched, but to me a security issue sounds like a good enough reason to update ASAP.

The patch fixes a bug where remote intruders were able to gain superuser access.

Does it fold well? I understand it includes a number of tweaks for 400, 500 series GPUs, but this is probably largely gaming centric/specific games.

P7625 TPF seems unchanged on GT430 / 64bit Win7, same goes for P10504 TPF on 9400GT / 32bit WinXP. I finished the updates less than an hour ago, so it is a bit early to draw final conclusions yet. But so far so good, no oddities during installation, and folding seems to have resumed normally even though I paused mid-WU in both cases.

My very much subjective first impression is that there's a tiny bit of improvement in screen responsiveness when I'm running EAH on the integrated ION GPU (which I've recently retired from folding and switched to Einstein@Home instead), but that may very well be just because of a fresh reboot.

Win7 GPU3 is progressing as usual after the driver update:

No change in PPD (on P7626) for either a GTX 560 Ti or a GTX 660 (Win7 64-bit) when upgrading from 310.70. That is hardly surprising, since I don't recall ever seeing a PPD change for any Nvidia driver since even before the Fermi days.
