Recently no. The last bug fix I think the adjusted mob spawning frequency but that was a while ago. Remember your distance from the trap will affect whether mobs spawn or not. If your more than 250 blocks away they will despawn and you can't be closer than 25 blocks.
They have done nothing to the spawning mechanics at all. (No adjusting of mob spawning frequency whatsoever)
They have pushed 1.8 lighting forward and people seem to think this is why more mobs are spawning.
Its quite possible that cause of this new lighting (making things dark, glitched shadowy areas etc) more mobs may be spawning elsewhere instead of your trap now
With the recent lighting change its now very important to light up the surrounding cave systems. Perhaps they weren't an issue for you before but now are?

Thanks guys, went back to the caves I've lit up before and added more lighting as well as the ground above and seems to have worked.

Lately, I've notice that my mob trap system have not been dropping items like it use to. Or not spawning many mobs like it use to.
Anyone else notice?
