Efficency of the mapper
 
I am using v6.16

Does the mapper work better if a large map is split into zones, or does this make no difference?

Well, in 6.16 it actually works better when all the rooms are in one zone file. However, as you add more and more rooms, the inital loading time will be greater. Also, in the current beta versions and the public version later on the mapper uses another format. This format is a real database format and it works just as well if you have all the rooms in one zone or many. However, if you put all the rooms in one zone now, when you convert the map files later on, you will have to go through the trouble of moving the corresponding rooms to each zone.
