To be frank, most of this is not really helping much. "CPU Fast" is nonsense and does not work for a 060 at all since it does not support it. If you want to mirror the ROM into RAM and have the mmu libs, use "MuFastROM". Not any third party program.  Additionally, depending on the board, "MuFastZero" might also help to mirror execbase into fast memory.   "FBlit" is nonsense if you have an RTG system anyhow (in such a case, blits are executed by the CPU in first place, through the RGB system, and you don't need an additional source of instability in first place). The same goes for FText. All this is already run through the RTG System in first place, no patch needed - and not exactly helping either. I don't know what BlazeWCP is, but it falls probably into the same category.  CopyMem060 is most likely not helping, only damaging a perfectly fine copy. Besides, how much software are you aware of that copies huge amounts of memory around so that this would create a measurable difference?  Seriously, the 060 should - out of the box - reach approximately twice the speed of the 040. If it does not, none of the above programs will help either. Something is then seriously wrong, for example the CPU caches are off. (No, the *CPU* command does not help here. It is the processor library, i.e. the 68060.library that is then not loaded. The CPU command is a legacy program that has not been updated and that does not support the 68060.).
