DxO Sale and a question

I usually avoid every the doing every update thing but at $45 I am tempted.

Been using it for years, and I am in the process of migrating away from it.
For my needs the strongest features that I valued are:
- Prime de-noising is superior.
- Speed of raw preview when flipping between and comparing shots.

The reasons I am migrating away and towards RawTherapee:
- Cannot make my own correction profiles for my vintage lenses, which I have many. This is a biggest reason.
- The Luminance (flats / vignette) part of the the built in correction profiles were not as good as I expected. With SR off, and at various focusing distances they were close and they did help the image, but there were not precisely on.
- No Linux Support
- It irked me that when I upgraded my K1 to a K1 MkII that I had to buy the new version of the app. Really annoying.
