| Jun 14, 2016 at 15:00 | comment | added | sgmm | @EdgarBonet No I found the avr-objdump file but couldn't execute the command he gave. It's probably because I'm using Windows. | |

That will allow you, if used right, to list all the variables in your .elf file. You can then look to see what there is. You can then match those up to variables in the core software and determine if you need the functionality associated with those variables - and if not then delete it wholesale. | |

So is there any way I can reduce the amount of memory being used without scrapping my Arrays? For example, is there a way to NOT store the current millis() and micros() or is there an alternative to SoftwareSerial?
