Hi,

yes i am using the onchip-memory as the program-memory for my NIOS. When i modify the code (add some functions) the Complier displays the following:

Info: (cas02_PGM1.elf) 46 KBytes program size (code + initialized data).

Info: 2184 Bytes free for stack + heap.

That is what i expected (48k). Any change in my code changes the free bytes (thats o.k), but sometimes free+used bytes are not the same as the size of my memory. I can reproduce this behaviour with other programs...
