That would explain it.  Is there any way to modify that behavior... if I'm the 
only one that needs a fully ghosted system I don't want to slow everyone else 
down.

Jed: how much overhead will be incurred by having all vectors in my SNES system 
be ghosted?  Will it be a noticeable slowdown or communication?
