Minimum memory requirements

I'm interesting in using ERIKA but I couldn't find any information on the minimal amount of RAM that the software needs in order to run. Can anyone give any recommendations? What is the minimum amount and what is the recommended amount?

The memory requirements highly depends on the number of tasks and on the configuration of the kernel.

A minimal system with FP runs in less than 1Kb flash on some microcontrollers, and around 100 bytes of RAM. A typical system can typically go up to 2-4 Kb.

Take a look at http://erika.tuxfamily.org/wiki/index.p ... for_Nios_2 , which were some detailed benchmarks i did some time ago on nios II... other architectures will be somehow similar.

Also check http://erika.tuxfamily.org/wiki/index.p ... Benchmarks for other benchmarks...
