OTOH, 64k should be enough for the setup task. I would have expected that long term this can be pushed even further down again...?!
Is there a rough estimation which part takes how much in a typical LinuxBIOS (AMD64) port? Maybe it makes sense to go look at the biggest chunks first.
last time I looked, romcc output (depending on board) was bumping in at 24-36K and c_payload made up the rest. So on some ports it is getting tight.
today, on arima, payload is 28K, and the romcc output is big enough that it won't fit in 64k. That was not the case yesterday :-)
