I heard that Vista is usually about 3 FPS faster and in certain (rare) cases even more than 15 FPS faster.
However I have no problem running any game on the highest possible settings (well except for Crysis) so I don't care about 3 FPS more or less.

Well the reason I don't like 7 is because IT IS Vista. It's Microsoft's way of repackaging it to get rid of the tainted name of Vista, and all they really did was change the start bar, which I don't like one bit. I don't notice any performance increase, faster loading, etc, my pc was already fast at all that. 

I'm really starting to wonder about you...

Anyways, they added a ton of new features. Improved aeros from being lame to being cool.

Mattering where you get your reviews for the OS there is no more than a +/-3% difference. When Vista was launched the performance was HORRID. With SP2 its actually decent. SP1 actually did a decent amount of improvements for Vista, but more in terms of multithreading. Windows 7 SP1 is already in the works, Windows 7 is already a vast improvement over Vista, so SP1 should solve any slight issues like memory leaks and performance differences that you seem to think is such a vast number even though its maybe 4FPS higher or lower then Vista SP2.
