It still refreshes the partition table after every change, which seems unnecessary. In GParted I can setup 15 partitions one after another without delay, the click apply and let it do it's thing. In Ubiquity I make 1 partition, wait, make another partition, wait, and still nothing is actually written to the disk until I click next, when I have to wait yet again.

In the past, partitioning with Ubiquity was absolutely painful. Now it doesn't seem painful, but I do still have to wait needlessly between steps; my hardware is just 3+ years newer.

What's been fixed exactly? That I have a Core2 Quad instead of an Athlon XP? That sounds like a workaround.
