Well, I suppose it could be System 6.0.4, but that didn't seem too likely.
Here are the INITs that I am still running:

	TMON Startup
	ColorFinder
	Desktop Manager
	Programmer's Key
	Responder
	Suitcase II
	Adobe Type Manager

Here are the INITs that I was running before, in addition to the above:

	SuperBar
	Boot Paths
	Facade
	FPInit
	QuicKeys
	QK Cache
	Rear Window MF
	PLI Turbo Cache

In both cases I was running a Mac II rev 1.2, 5M of memory, without
MultiFinder (it being, in my opinion, a tool of the devil :-)).  I didn't
notice any difference in HyperCard's speed, although the improvement to
SuperCard was a good 75% faster (8-bit mode on video board).  For example,
the "sliders" demo was absolutely awful before, and it's almost usable
now...

Hmm.  Now that I think about it, another difference is that I have installed
32-bit Quickdraw in the interim.  Maybe that's it...
