 ## Performance considerations
 
-Today in version 1.5 of the Windows App SDK, launch speeds, RAM usage, and installation size of WinUI 3 apps are larger/slower than seen in UWP. We're actively working to improve this.

 ## Visual Studio
 
-The **Design** tab of the XAML Designer in Visual Studio (and Blend for Visual Studio) doesn't currently support WinUI 3 projects (as of version 1.5 of the Windows App SDK). For more info, see [Create a UI by using XAML Designer](/visualstudio/xaml-tools/creating-a-ui-by-using-xaml-designer-in-visual-studio).
