The 90 minutes is not - the blockchain has grown quite a lot since last year, and as for the 3.5 speed, I havn't tested it since Pieter's ultraprune - libcoin also has something similar to ultraprune, done directly in the sqlite database backend, but I should run a head to head again - could be fun. I would assume, though, that the result would be similar timings.
However, by having a merkle tree hash of all UTXOs they become downloadable in a trusted manner from any other client - something that enables bootstrap in minutes, so the old numbers becomes less relevant in this setting.
