Same here. A NetBSD system with 128 MB of memory (there is more elsewhere, but not for that OS or for its processes). Gdbserver is a wonderful tool, making possible debugging that gdb could not possibly do because of its size. But for that to work it has to remain small. It's already pushing the limits (300k or so when linked statically).

The point remains valid, though, that GDBserver needs to remain reasonably small. We run LynxOS on boards that occasionally run out of memory, so resource management is a concern...
