Hi, I have a 2011 model Tumalo jacket that I bought direct from GoLite in a size XL. it weighs 10.8 oz

I also have a 2011 GoLite Tumalo Pertex Storm Jacket in size large. I replaced the little foam cord locks on the hood with plastic line locks, and it weighs in at 10.86 ounces.
I just picked up the Kenai and have it at 282g (9.94oz) on my scale for size Large.
FYI. There was a separate thread about the various Golite fabrics – in this case the Pertex vs. Trinity.
For reference, the weather turned quickly here the other day – pouring rain, 48 deg and about 25mph winds and not a single drop inside the Kenai. I was mostly standing around at a soccer game, so can't comment on breathability. Very nice feature set on the Kenai too.
Ive got a Kenai that comes in at 322 grams, 11.35oz for an XXL.
My 2010? Tumalo was like 11 for an XXL.
