On mobile, large apps are not staying installed for long as they are all competing for the always too small space.

If say Twitter will do with is huge size, other apps will be compared to it. Which means that a 30 m��gas app us a monster asking for removal.

I rooted my phone to be able to remove vendor apps in order to get some more space.

I have an OS (Yosemite) thats takes 5 out my 8 GB of Ram. Google Chrome with opened 20 tabs that consumes around 1 GB of Ram. Games that eat Ram like peanuts and I do 3d graphics with blender which also can consume GBs like no tommorow. Music productions was not much diffirent either.�� I watch movies which are several GBs each. I have 1 TB drive its already half full (mainly because of movies).��

32 mb is nothing. XCode with an empty project cosumes 130 MB. Dont forget that it loads no libraries like Pharo and definetly is no live coding enviroment.��

Pharo consumes around 80MBs

Emacs with zero guis still consumes 40mbs.��

Small is not beautiful its irrelevant. ����

Unless you are on a platform that has real problem with sizes.��

Don't know about Pharo 2.0 as, skip it.

Is there a limit?

Hopefully I gave up on the idea of tablet use but aren't we loosing the
sight on small is beautiful?
