-## Database Performance
+## Optimizing performance
+
+This release brings significant performance optimizations to both Home
+Assistant's backend and frontend UI.
+
+### Frontend UI performance
+
+The communication layer between the Home Assistant frontend and its Core backend
+has been greatly improved. It now sends over a lot less data and is heavily
+optimized to send the least amount of data when first loading up the UI.
+
+The UI will load faster since less data is transferred over the wire,
+and there is less data for the web browser or app to process.
+
+Additionally, lessened data transmitted means Home Assistant will work better
+on slower data connections and, if essential for you, uses less data on your
+mobile data plan.
+
+### Database performance
 
 This release features write reductions intended to preserve SD card lifetimes,
 performance improvements designed to get data to the frontend faster, and
-database size reduction ranging from 10-35% for most installs.
