To speed up messiah's loading & saving use init from bag of tricks to init a blank disk. Tracks 0-1 should be inited with a 2 descending skew. Tracks 2-34 should be 2 ascending skew. Messiah will now load and start your program in about 15 seconds. You can do this either to your blank disk or to a disk with messiah and a program already saved on it. (just remember to set/disable saving data in init)
