Well Mel, I have are two suggestions for you :

1. Install LSPPP as your packet driver (install LSPPPCFG to make
   this process "quick and painless"). 
2. Install my 1.73J4 core, which (among other features) is optimized
   for minimum memory usage.

These two changes combined should save you about 50K (give or
take some).

Joe.
