Generally, Suitcase / Suitcase II does not reduce RAM requirements, given
a constant set of resources (fonts, DAs, etc.) available.  I.e., moving
resources from the System to a suitcase file does not reduce RAM requirements.

The belief that the contents of the System (including fonts, DAs, etc.) are
continuously RAM-resident is common but incorrect.  The System is a
disk respository of resources; each resource is loaded into RAM only when
it is actually used.
