Probably, the reason for this is because your PEQ editor is an extremly slow process. This is ok for "quick" single fixes, but not for someone who is seriously zone-spawning.
In my case, I use three of GeorgeS's editors, PEQ Editor, MySQL Query Browser, and even the MySQL text shell; what ever is fastest for what I am doing at the moment, is what I use. So, if all I can provide you is entries from the PEQ-Editor logs, this would be incomplete.
Don't get me wrong; PEQ Editor, is excellent and very needed, but had I depended only on the PEQ editor, I would have given up a long time ago.
Also, It appears to me PEQ Editor has not posted an update since last Febuary. If you use the PEQ Editor that is posted for download, it will not work right (if not at all) with the latest Database. I stupidly hacked into it and got it half-assed running (took me weeks since I had to learn some PHP) - Then one day I "blundered" into the CVS and realized the updates were there. Now, this was just me - imagine all the other new-bees that downloaded PEQ Editor 1.0, got frustrated and gave it up? regardless what the reasons are, I got put under the impression you all had lost interest, or maybe did not want to be bothered.
If you want new fish on your side of the pond, you have to throw out some fish-food once in a while.

That's why I said it; look at the replys I got - but I see now that PEQ Editor is not part of the PEQ database crew. I had given up on the whole PEQ forum after that.
