Still droofing into a groundboost! I still love it when droofs are useful!

Looking at and working with the Overgrown Temple Dustgirl TAS, I found that there were few at most one or two spots where Dustgirl's big up/sideheavy hitboxes were useful, which could each maybe save a frame at most, while there were several places she had to jump without canceling her jump startup with a ledge. Her jump startup slows her down far more than Dustman, so I expected that he'd have the potential to save a lot of time.

Actually getting around to completely redoing things, as I had to in order to get Dustman to work, I noticed a few spots where I may have saved frames by means other than just character choice, so Dustgirl could probably also be a little bit faster. However, I'm pretty sure Dustman is likely to be the faster character overall... though as you can tell from the time difference here, probably not by much.

If he's only faster by a couple of frames, there's a chance he'd be slower in a full game run just due to the time it takes to switch characters, but chances of that seem pretty slim.
