Yes, FASTLOAD works. However, there are a few pointers necessary to make
it work correctly.

After booting the shell, before executing the compiler, and AFTER
executing the compiler do the following shell commands:

		disk u;
		disk i0:

I also do this in the editor before scratching any files, and before
saving any files.

Other than that, it is well worth the expense. The initial compiler load
is only about 6 seconds.
