Interesting. Thanks for pointing this out!

I tried the examples successfully. It seems that a system (approx 16k) is put onto the controller first, which is used to run "my program". This bit reminds me of Forth, which I use routinely (http://amforth.sf.net) --- except for the gui clicky part, of course. amForth puts some 8k onto the controller to run "my program".

Happy hacking!

Yep, the runtime and a set of components is uploaded to the microcontroller first. Changes to the graph is then transmitted from the UI (or can be loaded from progmem), to set up "the program" by instantiating components and connecting ports.
In the future there will be a need to configure which component(sets) are included in the image.
