I found a couple already and they really are not that hard to find, I'm rather shocked prices havent been raised because i've found several that are like the old routes except much much shorter making 10m with a 5k in like 10 minutes.

Unless you neglected to notice that the purchase price for that particular commodity also decreased substantially, resulting in lower end prices but higher profit margins, I can't imagine what you are talking about. Every last commodity in the game that is intended for trading had its profit margin increased substantially. Do tell, do tell.

I've found a LOT more really good trade routes than there used to be, both short and long. I'm very pleased that it's now possible to run a lucrative trading operation without even leaving your House of choice.

I'm curious about what you define as lucrative. Certainly not as lucrative as if you trade between Houses.

Perhaps not, but not too far off. There are a number of two-stop intra-House trade routes with a profit/sec rate of 210-215cr. They require docking more often, though, and it's a lot less profit per-load, but over the long term the profit/sec is good.
Edit: That's based off the default settings for FLCompanion. I don't know what the actual speed of Disco trade lanes is, and I haven't updated the cruise speed setting. BTW, what IS the cruise speed for the various classes of ships now?
