Hello,

since my artemis seems to get lower on performance as I used up Main Storage, I wonder what effect it would have if I try to cook my used apps into the rom.

Is it right, that I can compile any software into rom? what would be max rom-size? what for then I find cabs in extended rom? Are Programms using less Storage if they are compiled into Rom?

if programs are located in rom they dont use any storage rom only app mem unless they use temp files which use storage

extented run are just cab files which are auto installed to storage so it dont help you at all

...Sorry, I am not sure, if I really got your message.
First ROM itself stands for (read only memory), that is defenitively storage.

I guess I am lacking knowledge about storage architekture. As I know from that 128 MB rom Dice, I always get some 46mb main Storage for Installing Programs, or saving my Phone-Contacts etc.....

I thought that remaining space, is dependent from whats inside my Rom, whatelse for would it make sence to put free storage below any self-cooked rom available on this forum?

The interesting stuff would be, what kind of programs I can compile into any rom, what would be the exact effect?
