I returned to test without the new files by loading a save from just before leaving the base screen to start the patrol. So the mission/sub/etc. were the same, but I don't know when local traffic is determined (probably at load). I'll try to start several different patrols and compare 1.1 to 1.1b, probably when I get back from Chicago.
I have noticed this type of slowdown before related to local traffic, but not at the start of a patrol as with the two I encountered the problem with following installation of 1.1b.
