Is "of late""of late" used as equally as "recently""recently" or "lately""lately" in the Present Perfect tense?

I mean, would it be acceptable to use the 1st aentencesentence as well as the 2nd or 3rd if I wrote the following:

  1. I've made a great strides recently.
  2. I've made a great strides lately.
  3. I've made a great strides of late.

I also want to know: do both "so far""so far" and "by now""by now" have the same meaning?
