there are two ways to speed up your calc in EOS made (non-asm).

rip out a condensator. 'Turboing' your calc this way considerably
speeds things up, but screws the timing for asm programs, and nearly
all of em won't run. Furthermore, this drains your batteries plenty. I
bet gaffney's ti-86 site has information, and no doubt ticalc and
tifiles have too.

The other one is to keep your memory below 32k. this way you won't
have to swap.

Also, in general keep the # of vars low. The more vars you have, the
longer a vat lookup (performed everytime you use a variable) takes.

Speeding up asm programs... well, they don't slow down or speed up
much at all. Only thing you can do here is pull your condensator and
make much asm programs not run.
