Made me look.

The default FRC 2.4 version of the code comes in at 18,927 bytes or 55%.
Optimizing gets you down to 14,743 bytes or 43%

Sorry for the thread hijack Jacob. Us old folks tend to ramble on sometimes.

I don't know of any rule that prohibits the downloading of new code as long as it's occurring within the custom circuit rules, and I can't think of any harm that might do from a safety or IFI control perspective.

P.S. My wife was a warhawk. Just had a reunion in Vienna this past summer.
