With regard to speeding up the mandlebrot thingies..
 
I have been in the same boat as you.

I found a HUUUGE increase when I decided to jump awaay from using libraries and do all the tedious work my self.. (eg. Using the Copper to open my screen , etc/... The biggest increase was acheived by instead of using Draw(x,y) library commands but rather access the actually bplane pointer and filling from there..

I'll try to dig up my source (it's been at least 2 years now.) and see if I can help more...
