It's at a similar rate as whilst more Bosnian Muslims were killed, some Serbs were killed or left for their parent country Serbia, as the areas near the Serbian border had the most Bosnian-Serbs anyway. So the ''populations'' of each group evened out in the end.
However, due to ethnic cleansing, the population is more polarised. Bosnian-Croats mostly live in the south and south-west, Serbs most in the east under the newly formed RS, and Bosnian Muslims in the centre in and around Sarajevo and some parts of the north. Before the war all the ethnic groups lived everywhere, now they all stick entirely to these areas with few people crossing the ethnic line. So a town in east Bosnia that might have been 30% Bosnian Muslim before the war now might only be like 3% Bosnian Muslim for example.

No it hasn't.. Before war, in a communist regime, Muslims in Bosnia did not have freedom to practice their religion, actually they have been suffering thru out the history, especially since Ottoman empire fell apart.. But that just gives them more strength to stand up...they will never disappear!

even with heavy deaths throughout the time of the conflict, the muslim inhabitants of Bosnia went up following the conflict of the 1990's. maximum of this grew to become into through muslims leaving different areas of the former u . s . of Yugoslavia and coming to Bosnia. inner migration of muslims to Bosnia hit it extremely is optimum peaks between 2001 and 2004. at the instant there are in simple terms below 2 million muslims in Bosnia or around 40% of the inhabitants.
