We calculate analytically the past asymptotic decay rates close to an initial singularity in general G_0 spatially inhomogeneous perfect fluid models with an effective equation of state which is stiff or ultra-stiff (i.e., $\gamma \ge 2$). These results are then supported by numerical simulations in a special class of G_2 cosmological models. Our analysis confirms and extends the BKL conjectures and lends support to recent isotropization results in cosmological models of current interest (with $\gamma > 2$).
