A few tips..

Systempatch: *replaces* both BlazeWCP and
FText, the speedups according to P96Speed
are identical. Plus, it speeds up some other
areas as well by patching graphics.library.
Make sure to use "NOUTIL" tagline with
060 and maybe 040, "NOLAYERS" tagline if you
have problems with PPaint, and finally use
the "NOEXEC" tagline if you're running a
modified exec OR perhaps latest exec from BB2.

Run exec.library in fastram, this provides quite
a speedup (measureable with benchmarks). This can
be done for instance with Blizkick localfast
option. You may also want to modify/fix
exec.library  with something like "Exec44".

PatchMult64: Speeds up a few rarely used math
functions.

Try running FBlit in exclude mode (promotes
everything unless you specify otherwise).

HSMathLibs are also great.

Executive works fine for me???

I have *never* had a duplicable crash resulting
from properly setup and well - coded patches,
and my system is overall faster and more stable.
