I eventually had the time to test that system (using 2.8a - #2158). I
noticed that with other screen depths than 8, Squeak significantly slows
down - and I've set 32 bit display resolution in BeOS. The main problem
however is that once I press a character like ä or ö - probably anything
with asciiValue >= 128 - the VM hangs. That makes it basically unusable
for me :-(
