Hi Fabio,

    two issues here.  One is that I don’t think space is precious anymore.  I *think* the vm stores the image header size in the first or second 32-bit word, and to the header is effectively stretchy.  I will check. The other issue is that anything in the specialObjectsArray is available only after the image is loaded, which implies adding a post-load configuration stage.  Currently all the size config is done before the image loads.
