I do not understand. If you are using all runtime packages
your executable should be quite small (obviously this depends)
and you should not have Win9x resource problems (since the
limit applies to a single module).

It seems like you must only be using a few runtime packages.
What BPLs are you distributing with your app? Just curious,
because it sounds like you are getting the worst of both
worlds at the moment.
