Yeah. REmove the Aquifer tag from all the dirt layers.

I thought the switch from 40d to .31 had a killer FPS drop? Or was that ever fixed? Or did I imagine the whole thing?

I think it went from 150 dwarves, playable fps, to 25 dwarves decent fps. And all blood smears and spatters are now trackable objects and they use LOTS of cpu time!

Unless you turn it off in fortress mode.

The answer is, it's all voodoo.
Every map/world is vastly different, and will always perform differently.  This causes wild notions about version differences.

Nope, the maps perform the same if there is the same water flows, temperature effects, and embark size.

I see only minor differences between different-world 2x2 embarks. It's all down to item, spatter, creature-count I believe. Try a no-hostiles fort and see better framerates due to no combat messiness.
