So, use the CF8 components for rapid prototyping. Refactor with straight Ext for final app, optimizing what you need when you need it, and packed in any fashion you find appropriate.
You said that App memory load with FckEditor was 1338k? I'm guessing you mean your client side memory load on your browser? And that you mean 'load', not the amount of data transferred across the wire? OK, so what's the problem? Have you seen how much memory Word or Excel or something takes? Right this moment, on my desktop, Outlook is using 68000k, Eclipse:237700, and Thunderbird: 156000. 400k is negligible.
