Image Bloat: What can I do about it.

I have run into another problem. My image is outgrowing my available memory:(

My Mac Centris 610 with 24 meg is maxing out. I checked the size of my Squeak 1.3
source files and they have all grown considerably. About this Mac says that
Squeak is using over 15 meg, the system and my editor are taking up the rest.

When I load my image, it takes much longer than it used to.

I have been working on a port of the Draw80 drawing program from KCS and have 
added a lot of code to my system and have worked on changes to a lot of methods.

Is there anything I can do to reclaim some space?

I continue to make progress on DrawSQ. I have a view open with a command menu and
a toolbar. Selecting a tool works and I can use them, but the images that I
create are not persistant. Something, somewhere is not working.

If I can get some space back, I will continue debugging and try to get this
thing working correctly.

Thank You,

John-Reed Maffeo
