Picasso II decreasing the speed of my 030 card.

SysInfo isn't a very good benchmark tool and the readings you're getting might not be accurate. Try a different benchmark program with/without the Picasso and see what happens.

As spirantho said earlier, i believe the CyberGraphX V4 drivers are sucking the GVP ram right from the start and leaving me with only the 4 meg of slow zorro ram.

Ah, I overlooked that part of the conversation. There are a few things you can try to verify that. First, try booting without a startup sequence (so the CGX drivers don't get loaded) and run the benchmark again. Also try checking the priorities of your various memory nodes. I don't know if loading CGX into Zorro II RAM instead would make things any better (I suspect it won't), but you can try it by putting this early in your startup-sequence.
