I've been using LSC 2.11 (thanks for the upgrade, Rich!) to write C programs
for a class. My configuration was a Mac Plus with an 800K drive, and an
external 400K drive. Though it was tight, I was able to do my programming
efficiently.
Note that many of the libraries and include files had to be removed in order
to fit in this configuration (I didn't use EVERYTHING that Think provided!).
The 400K disk contained the system files (Finder 4.1) and the Macsbug debugger,
and the 800K disk contained LSC and the libraries, include, and project files.
With 2 800K drives (and, perhaps, any ram disks), I think that LSC could
run decently, depending on how you set it up.
Hope this helps!
