Yes, I guess you are right. I should have said we may want to determine a smaller standard configuration for PDA's. Even that is suspect since it always creates headaches to have multiple standards, and there aren't any modern PDA's on which an extra 100-200k is a big deal.
So it looks like the current default is reasonable for PDA's as well and anyone with extreme needs can build their own extreme VM. Much better.
