Ftext is also worth using. Similar to FBlit, but for text rather than graphics. Additionally if using OS3.9 (possibly 3.5 as well, although Im not sure) prefs/workbench also has an option for using fastram for images.

Not only will you save valuable chipram with all the above, but you'll get a nice little speed-up.
Near as I can tell this is where I write something under the guise of being innocuous, but really its a pot shot at another persons/peoples choice of Amiga based systems. Unfortunately only I cant see how transparent and petty it makes me look.
