Thanks for taking the time to review the change Dan. I have posted my comments inline below, I will attempt to turn around a commit quickly so as not to take up more of your time.

This patch does this, but a lot more. I'd like some more words here about what it does for speedups, and splitting out the other parts of the change. If you can turn this around quickly, I'll commit to getting it in this weekend, so you don't have to wait again. If you can't, let me know and I'll do it for you.

This is fine, but how about we just go with something like this to make it even more flexible?

Then you can initialize any of the fields in Memory when you create it, which will be nicer all around.
This change was specifically made as an optimization as memories are
constructed in a rather tight loop; it was slightly faster to remove the double member assignment and replace it with a parametrized constructor. While a generic iterator would be flexible, I was not aiming for added flexibility here as much as reducing the overall number of instructions for the add perf.

This is a pretty major change that has nothing to do with the speed improvements, removes functionality, and isn't even mentioned in the commit message. I don't really mind dropping the DstarSupport from this because I don't think it's useful for anything other than the first generation radios, and wasn't really that useful then anyway. But, let's please make it a separate commit so that it stands alone.
You are correct about this change, I can separate it out np.

I expect this listcomp is the bulk of the intended performance improvement here, right?
To be honest, I can't really tell a difference in the load times on my machine. Does this patch make a noticeable improvement for you (and others)?
The 'bulk' of the realized optimization stems from the removal of the
redundant call to prefill - which is best visualized without a profiler when 'show empty' is enabled as the list will typically flash twice during the subsequent removal and re-addition of 1k items.
The list comprehension + the explicitly parameterized memory constructor simply aid in the optimization but do require profiling to measure the impact. I will post my breakdown of perf. timings with the follow up commit as I do not have them in front of me at the moment.
rf.memory_bounds = (0, len(self.memories))
rf.memory_bounds = (0, len(self.memories)-1)
This is unrelated to performance I'm sure. Is this really a bug, or does it matter?
This is a bug and shows up when you have empty memories enabled, in which
the memories start a 1 instead of 0.

Also unrelated to performance, and not a good improvement, IMHO, as it just makes this more chatty. Was this intentional?
Technically this was not intentional, however I always make this change
locally because it reduces console spew, in that warnings are echoed to stdout by default whereas infos are not. Probably not the best way to get rid of this spam, but it works for me; nonetheless I can revert.

This is okay, but presumably just a cleanup, right?
This was a combination of cleanup and subsequent taking advantage of the
optimization pattern mentioned previosly.
Thanks!
