** SPEEDFIXES:
Disabled VIC-IIe chip (7% improvement) - The game is an obligatory VDC game. There is no need for VIC-IIe to maintain an active functional screen display with badlines fetching.

Lowered system baud rate from 300 to 150. CP/M shows its terminal legacy strongly here. In the C128 architecture, the Z80 NMI pin is disabled. Without NMI, the system relies heavily on IRQs to handle certain assignments such as the 'serial port', 'keyboard', etc. As the baud rate setting increases, the amount of time that the Z80 has available for general tasks obviously decreases. A rule of thumb with respect to IRQ load is that the number of IRQs per second is three times the system baud rate.
