It will speed up considerably when you get more memory, believe me.  I've seen
it happen on my MM/1.  (For that matter, I wouldn't be surprised if the new
batch of MM/1 device drivers and the like included improved floppy drivers.)

The overscan modes (which are the ones gifshow will be able to use when you
have the added RAM) make more of a difference than one might expect, because if
it increases each linear dimension by 10% (that's just a guess on my part),
that's a 21% increase in *area*, which is what you'll perceive as the change.
