Hello all,

Ok, I have a silly question but I can't help but ask it: all my .Net apps take up a significant amount of RAM (17 megs for c++ win app, 18 for c# win app, 9ish for console apps). The problem is that the .Net framework is simply HUGE. And now, here's the two part question:

1) Is there a way to "shrink" the framework so that it uses the bare minimum (though I get the feeling that apart from removing as many ref's as humanly possible, that's about as small as it can get)

2) Any way of running the .Net *compact* framework on a regular machine without using the humongous emulator?
