# New Functionality and Changes Introduced with Decision Optimizer 7.5

This section describes the new features and changes introduced with Decision Optimizer 7.5.

## Performance Improvements

This includes:

Reduced Decision Impact Model (DIM) execution times

- We have improved both how each DIM Component, and the overall DIM are executed.
- On standard test projects, depending on their complexity and number of components, we have seen a reduction in DIM execution times of between 8% and 28%.
- This reduces the amount of time needed for any DIM Build or Rebuild process and on all Scenario runs.

Reduced Tableau Reports creation times

- Enhancements in the way Decision Optimizer user interface and the supporting Tableau for FICO component connect over networks, has seen 20% to 30% reduction in creation times across reports.
- Improvements in data management, in particular on the Treatment Mix report which in certain circumstances could take significant time to create, has resulted in a 57% reduction in report creation times on typical test projects.

## Miscellaneous Enhancements

Defects

- A wide range of user reported and internally discovered defects have been fixed within the release.
