Difference Between Metasploit 2.x and 3.x

If you are curious what is the difference between Metasploit 2.x and 3.x. Here is the overview:

The speed difference between 2.x and 3.x is absolutely insane. Calling the msfcli interface results in 10+ seconds of initialization before it even starts trying to exploit the target, when you have a script calling msfcli multiple times it soon gets tiring… And this is on a fairly modern dual core box. I used to run metasploit 2.x on a much slower single core box and it performed quite well.
