"Sped" is just the past tense of "to speed": http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/sped So it does fit in with the other lines "Added/Renamed/Sped up/...". According to urbandict: a derogatory term meaning retard. comes from the phrase special education Oh well. Still, FWIW I'd have read this as normal english, not as some slang term where it also happens to be an insult.

Agreed. We are using past tense so it stays. A
