The speed problems that 10.3 has when used with slews of INIT's are gone
in 11.0. RR11 is significantly faster in all areas over 10.3. 

However I don't have a clue as to what you mean by your last statement
about Zterm, Scott does not rely on anyone elses programming to do his work.
When RR11 comes out in the next couple months, there will be no problems
with speed.
