Secondly, in PoA, the effect of his twelve years in Azkaban can easily
be seen. In GoF, this experience has only a few cursory mentions. I find
it hard to believe he has recovered so fully and so swiftly.

Oh that's easy, and it explains the tropical birds that carried letters
to Harry.

He went to some sunny, tropical place and found a head shrinker.

Actually, joking aside, if he was still basically sane coming out of
Azkaban, and he appeared to be, then spending two months sitting in the
sun, gaining some weight and reflecting on the past, the present and the
probable future, would have given him a better perspective. Perhaps he
realizes that if he HAD succeeded in killing Peter, then he would never
be able to be absolved of the crime.
