Version 3.08 is a precautionary security release. There was a potential buffer overrun in the networking code of the client that is fixed with version 3.08. Note that to exploit this vulnerability, a potential attacker would have to trick the client into contacting a fake server rather than the actual SETI@home server. To our knowledge, no SETI@home client has ever been attacked in this manner.
Thanks go to Berend-Jan Wever for finding this bug and demonstrating the exploit and to Steffen Zahn for helping to track it down in the code.According to the latest official figures, 43% of all statistics are totally worthless...Comment

As for speed, I haven't much data yet, but for normal wu the new client seems to use 5-10% longer time.
For high angle-range, it seems to be like before, or a little bit faster...
For VLAR, I've only crunched 1 wu, but this was much faster than before, using the same time as a normal wu with v3.03.
