CPU-friendly starting location

Seed: 3591897044 (generated on WinXP 32 Bit) Size: MEDIUM (129x129)

This is a 4x4 location selected to contain enough resources to support the needs of a fortress for years without requiring much CPU power. (You can also just select a 3x3 area and still have all the features.)

The water source is an aquifer, which won't create any CPU load until you tap into it. There is no source of constantly running water on the map (unless you create one, e.g. by draining one aquifer level into the one below).
Magma is provided by the magma pool in the top left corner. In my experience, magma pools do not slow the game down as much as magma pipes do.
The entire area is totally flat!

Note: I have not actually dug into the siltstone layer yet (or used reveal.exe), so the claims below that said siltstone layers contains iron ore and fuel are just guesses!

Trees: Yes, lots of them.
Ores: There should be plenty of iron ore in the siltstone layer.
Flux: There is marble on the left and top borders
Magma: There is a magma pool in the top left.
Fuel: Bituminous Coal and Lignite from the Siltstone layer, magma, trees
Water: The whole map has an aquifer. Dig a staircase near the magma pool to breach it without hassle.
Sand: All over the map.
Does not have: Brook, River, Underground River/Pond, Adamantine, Cave
Neighbors: Dwarves, Goblins, Humans, Elves

Be careful to avoid a forest fire (fire imps and lots of trees don't mix!), otherwise your whole party of seven might burn up before your first summer!

Resource rich starting location

Seed: 3004502376 (generated on MacOS X & on Linux with wine) Size: MEDIUM (129x129)

This is a 6x6 area with lots of resources. Watch out for the canyons, you need to build bridges across them to allow traders and immigrants access to your fortress. This region is far from flat. There is an underground magma pipe with its surface on level 141 (level with the river along the top of the region) at the right hand side of the map, just above the centre.

Trees: Woodland covering most of region
Ores: Iron, Copper, Aluminium ores all easily found
Flux: Lots of limestone
Magma: Underground magma pipe (see above). Bauxite easily found.
Fuel: magma, trees
Water: Two rivers
Sand: Covering all but the mountainous left edge
Neighbors: Dwarves, Humans, Elves, Goblins

Teyo Anetha (no Goblins)

The Kind Swamps

You'll get: trees, sand, magma, flux, bauxite, coal, all types of metal ore, alligators, carps, some other fish and NO goblins.

If you don't mind leaving the mountains and travelling down the rivers through 'The Outrageous Forest' of the elves, you will find here a nice locations with an interesting scenery. The rivers form two natural freshwater lakes, a small waterfall and there is an underground magma pipe to be discovered. The only obstacles are the aquifers and probably the local wildlife. And the place is called 'The Kind Swamps', too (warm, temperate freshwater swamp, heavily forested, thick vegetation, mirthful).

The Barbs of Zeal

A 3x3 location that has everything you'll ever want for except for bauxite and silk. Goblins provide an excellent source of iron.

Flux: Lots of marble
Magma: Surface magma pipe
Fuel: Magma, trees
Water: Underground river, underground pool
Sand: Black sand on surface
Neighbors: Dwarves, Humans, Elves, Goblins
Bottomless Pit: On surface
HFS: Enough said
Does not have: Bauxite, magnetite, cave, aquifer, giant cave spiders
