C8 was crashing on exit for many users. Is C9 still crashing on exit? How about performance? Any improvements regarding audio glitches and asio meter spikes?

Well, not good news, at least in my experience after ±50 minutes of tinkering with the update. I’m getting severe real-time peaks just playing some notes in Monark at a latency of 64 samples in a new empty project created from scratch in Cubase 9. The real-time meter (blue line) moves up and down like crazy when I simply open an editor window, and the whole GUI redrawing feels heavy and slow. And this is with an i7 5960x 8 core and RME AIO PCIe soundcard.

Same old same old it would seem…pity.

I must say that setting Hyper-threading to off in the BIOS improves this situation quite a bit. It seems that Cubase 9 still has a long way ahead to optimize its real-time performance in situations of very low latency (64 samples) and multiple cores (16 virtual cores in my particular case when Hyper-threading was activated).
