NewtWiki isn't terribly large, but it will consume more memory
as you use it (to maintain the back list). I've been considering moving
the backlist into a soup, which would trade off heap consumption with
speed. I don't know, though. From my off-the-cuff tests, it looks like
NewtWiki consumes about 27K of heap in it's normal state, growing from
there as you follow links. Maybe I should add a setting limiting the
size of the back list? I haven't had a problem with back list size, but
then again I'm running on a 2100...
I do know for a fact that MoreInfo consumes a large pile of
heap. I'm not surprised that you can't run both at the same time on
it...
As far as uninstalling it, though, just delete the NewtWiki
package. That'll get rid of the NewtWiki app, plus unregister all the
hooks on Notes. If you've created any items in the bookmark app (the
main NewtWiki app), you'll have a soup in your storage folder called
"Wiki" which you can delete.
