I have noticed that it is slower; however, I don't know by how much as I do
not have any benchmarks from the old ROMs.  Another point of interest is that
the scaling of the Y axis appears to be different.  I had images that were at
the upper and lower limits of the page that had to be adjusted to fit onto
the page.  Another interesting point is that it now appears to take an
extremely long time to switch from PostScript Batch mode to TI855 emulation
mode.  I would be interested to see if anyone from Adobe has any comment on
this.  I would not consider switching back to the old version as I really
like having a complete set of PostScript (35) fonts.
