Okay, I wrote and tested a function to count the currently used registry space:

FUNCTION getRegSize() ' trig by NONE
	sz = 30 ' Header for the whole registry
	r = CreateObject("roRegistry")
	secList = r.GetSectionList()
	FOR EACH name IN secList
		sz = sz + 8 '  A small header for each registry section (2 bytes plus section name, assume 6 more bytes)
		sec = CreateObject("roRegistrySection", name)
		keyList = sec.GetKeyList()
		FOR EACH key IN keyList
			val = sec.Read(key)
			sz = sz + Len(val) + 4 ' Headers - add 2 bytes for the key and 2 bytes for the value
		END FOR
	END FOR
	? "Registry size" sz
END FUNCTION
