External tiddlers can also be used with the Node.js edition for images/PDFs
etc, avoiding them being included in the file in their entirity. There's
more to do to make things smooth, but no intrinsic problem with scalability.

With a tiny tweak, TiddlyWiki under Node.js can also be used as an ordinary
single page wiki where each tiddler is served as a static HTML file. Again,
it's not polished, and more work needs to be done to support editing etc.

Best wishes
