Did Adobe recently release an update that helps with AMD performance?

I saw a newer youtube video where the person claims that updating Adobe Cloud has made a significant difference in his AMD Ryzen performance. Any idea if there was such an update?

If you're talking about the Spring (CC 2017.1) update, it actually speeded up the CPU-intensive MPEG2 DVD export performance (with MPE in software-only mode) regardless of the CPU. In my i7-7700 (non-K) PC, the result when down from around 500 seconds to around 460 seconds.

Randall,

I have found the same speed-up with my i7-5960 @4.5GHz Premiere Pro 10.4 with many runs of the test got 266 seconds and with the Premiere Pro 11,0 I got 251 seconds BUT when I tested the newest 11.1 guess what the CPU intensive score dropped to 240 seconds.  This correlated with your findings

interesting video. as he says, the update might allow the adobe software to use more cpu cores, rather than ryzen specific. cpu usage at 38-50% is using 3-4 of 8 cpu cores, while 76-88% cpu usage is using 6-7 of 8 cpu cores.

Bill Gehrke​ since you have an intel 8 core cpu, could you do some simple testing between an older version of premiere and the new update? like exporting a single 5 min clip without any fx in premiere and watching for average cpu % usage during the export, and perhaps the export times. it might also be good to test a few different media formats like h264 and dhxhr for the source and export.
