If youre interested in upgrading you OS then I recommend using at least a handful of 3rd party apps/patches/etc. as much (probably moreso) than upgrading to a higher revision of the OS. FBlit and Ftext are definately things you should consider, not just to save chipram, but to speed up the system. Basically FBlit uses fast ram for gfx functions, which not only saves valuable chipram, but fastram is considerably faster than chipram too. Ftext is similar, but deals with text. The speedup you'll get it quite noticable. Also while the new icon lib is a bit faster it's not an either/or thing, you shold probably use both.
