I do this same thing. In my mind, if TW is my external brain, I should only have one! If performance was never an issue, one could always just use actually use tags to completely split content apart, giving you the same workflow as having separate wikis. I use tags but not so extensively.

I started with numerous micro-wikis. I had too many edge cases where I had difficulty determining if a tiddler belonged in one or another, and started finding duplicates with diverging information. So I decided about a year ago to combine them all. It became a 23 MB file (with no images), and

I use what you call a monowiki that is approximately 10MB in size with thousands of tiddlers. As TiddlyTweeter mentioned, extensive use of tags can slow things down. I use tags only as little as possible. I use fields for everything else. I also don't embed any images (or very, very few) in my

Try it and see. If you know what you imported you can always delete it. TW scales pretty well. A known issue on performance hit is if you use tags extensively (like tagging hundreds upon hundreds) and use tag tiddlers that have populated list fields to order those tagged Tiddlers. FWIW I
