Faster performance and increased stability were two important goals for Picasa 3, and we certainly owe a hat tip to the millions of Picasa fans who downloaded and helped test our public beta. Thanks to their feedback and error reports, we’ve further refined and and optimized today’s release of Picasa 3.0. Along with many bug fixes, the official Picasa 3 build includes improved RAW support and a faster scanning engine than the beta — so as you add or alter photos on your system, you’ll see changes reflected more quickly inside your Picasa library
