I just acquired Micro-Emacs, which is wonderful.  It is about 120-130K
itself, and after a few weeks of using it (not regularly) seems to support
a useful subset of Emacs features.

Prior to that I was using a "vi" variant produced by Manx software, which
was a little faster (but it was "vi"), is about 100K.

I was occasionally using the PCwrite editor as well, about the same size.
As a UNIX fan, I was just used to the keystrokes of the other two.

This, by the way, on a T1000 with only a half meg of memory, no hard disk.
I have had no serious performance problems.
