Define "painful"? I have never noticed much of a speed difference in the
usage of the ICD2 when dealing with large dsPIC parts, or small 12F
parts. Yes, if you don't do things wisely (like leaving tons of watch
windows open, or the whole SFR window open) then the larger parts WILL
be slower in use since there's just so much more to update.

I have a feeling most people don't realize how the ICD2 works, and
simply blame the bigger parts as being "slower" then the smaller parts
with using the ICD2.
