When I got 3.9 I had some troubles with getting it to run properly. But that
was caused by those two files in env: someone mentioned. They gave me
sporadic lockups. Nowadays I dont have any problems thought on two of my
working machines, 030/50, 040/25, AGA and RTG and both with 3.9.

Get hold of the latest version of the editor and also, do as Simon Archer
wrote, delete the files

envarc:ted.prefs
env:ted.prefs

and see how it runs.

The blitting-operations themselves won't be speeded up, about Blitz vs. AMOS
I don't know - only used it for about an hour in my life :)

Hope it gets sorted,
