Not enabling the MMU on the 030 (with a fairly complicated config) will give you anywhere from 10-20% extra performance when doing things that uses some memory bandwidth, like networking, extracting archives etc.
This is interesting, patrik.
In this case, I guess "FastExec" is this one? : https://aminet.net/package/util/boot/FastExec30

Can you please elaborate about "Not enabling the MMU on the 030 (with a fairly complicated config) ?

Or is this just a matter of removing mmu.library and the 68k-libs from LIBS: ? And of course any MuTools from startup.

EDIT: Removed mmu.library and I tried the Blizkick approach again:

Code:
C:Blizkick devs:kick32 QUIET
C:FastExec FASTSSP FASTEXP
System kicks 32 and then reboots as normal.
Second boot, it will boot to workbench, but residentspeed tells me that exec.library and expansion.library is still in chipram.
On third reboot, everything is in place.

I could add a 'REBOOT' to the FastExec command, but did you ever achieve to do this with only one reboot?
