Re:Emacs bloat (Score 1)

Sure Eight Megabytes and Constantly Swapping. That would need to be eight hundred megabytes now. What you fail to appreciate is that the power of modern computers has increased faster than the the bloat in Emacs, so in relative terms, Emacs is *less* bloated. If you think its suffered badly, I suspect you've not really used it for a long time. Emacs 22.1 is vastly better than Emacs 19.34.
