Vet, is there any advantage to keeping the ROM as stripped as possible and adding all customizations and programs after the fact?

Back in my PalmOS days, the fastest custom ROMs were the cleanest because the cache (like the pagepool) was larger. You then used the program memory, not ROM, for programs, customizations, etc.

If WM61 is similar, wouldn't it be best to keep the ROM basically free from any extra stuff and just make a large customization file for each flavor (RED, schwartz, black, blue) and make the pagepool larger?
