Hi Dave,
 sadly there is no bootstrapping process for the Cuis image to do 1). You
will have to do 2).
 There is a message that does that in SystemDictionary, it is called
#reduceCuis
 So, if you do: Smalltalk reduceCuis will do the work.

 LiveTyping can also help to know which classes are used, but I haven't
done anything related with that.

 Cheers!
 Hernan.
