I'm looking at the speed issue. I loaded Drawde's 0.9 DB, and wow, you're not kidding. I always used only the test data before. There appear to be at least two bottlenecks, from what I can see. I'm still running 0.33 (I never patched, as I quit EQ a long time ago), but that shouldn't matter from the speed issue. If I can fix it I'll make a 0.34 setup and see how it operates.

P.S. Does 2.6 have a "Stats 2" page in the items pane? I have that here on my interim 2.7 version, with item modifiers (damage, etc). I don't remember if that was to be new for 2.7 or was already in there.
P.P.S. SPEED!!!!! I tracked down the most serious of the bottlenecks, and things are running MUCH faster. Now I need to set up an 0.34 DB, with full world data to make everything current. Anyone know if Drawde/Hardy/et. al. have an 0.34 (or newer) world DB that I can test with? Also, should I update from 0.33 to 0.34 or go right for 0.35 beta (assuming world data is available)?
