I've skimmed the thread and will go back and read more thoroughly, but ...
PalmInternals showed, under hede, ZLauncher, pToolsButtonsOn, and Jot.
I turned off Jot, deleted pTools, and rebooted. PI speed went to 73.
Then I turned off ZLauncher (didn't uninstall it - just deselected
it as the default launcher: Speed went to 6!
Wowzer!

whose awareness of things Chinese is bounded by an occasional dish of
chow mein. We grieve only for what we know./
