Do bodies and items reset faster now?

Idk but i murdered a whiterun guard long ago and the body would never dissappear. Downloaded the patch and it finally dissappeared.

well, there were four dragon skel's flopping around in winterhold for me, and there all gone now,

Every 30-34 days now.

I think that's what it was before; around a month in game

It did reduce my save file size. I don't know how, because items and corpses stil seem to be just lying around, and ingredients don't respawn any faster. In the patch notes they did say that dragon corpses clean up faster now, though.

lol I killed Cicero 2 years ago in the game, why is he still in the sanctuary?
