Are you saying that the debug core is larger in Nios II 5.1 than Nios II 1.0.1 or just that somehow it is required in Nios II 5.1 but it wasn't before?

Either way, this doesn't match my understanding of changes. The debug core hasn't been changed much and not in a way that would increase its size.

Are you not able to use GERMS to download your program instead of the debug core? Would a HAL version of GERMS help you?
