ROM 01 vs ROM 3

[Clayten_Hamacher@mindlink.bc.ca (Clayten Hamacher)]

Recently someone posted something about all the plusses of ROM 3, does it
have any drawbacks... Not counting the fact that some badly written software
is too ROM dependant to run on it, I'm talking about the ROM and motherboard
itself.

P.S. It has a newer set of tools but considering system 6 has even newer
tools wouldn't cause those to be loaded in, thus losing the 7% speed
advantage you gained by having them in ROM?

Also, can you tell me why programs in rom run faster than programs in ram??

And yet another... One version of the ROM 3 had memory peeker etc locked in..
I would prefer this because they are in ROM and therefore not taking up any
RAM (aside from whatever they might use when executed)..

Or do CDAs in ROM get transfered into RAM to run?
