Maxmod's memory footprint is very small for its capability.
The measurements below are taken using standard configuration (8 channels @ 16KHz)
| Memory Section | Approximate Usage |
|---|---|
| EWRAM (256KB external) | 1.79 KB |
| IWRAM (32KB internal) | 5.69 KB |
| ROM (cartridge) | 6.54 KB |
Note that the measurements do not calculate the extra memory required for the soundbank data. The soundbank data size is optimized, and is to be loaded into the cartridge space.
| Memory Section | Approximate Usage |
|---|---|
| IWRAM (ARM7 Code) | 19.25 KB |
| IWRAM (ARM7 Data) | 11.95 KB |
| EWRAM (ARM9 Code) | 2.37 KB |
| EWRAM (ARM9 Data) | 0.16 KB |
Note that the measurements do not calculate the extra memory required for soundbank data. This requirement depends on how many songs/samples will be loaded into memory at a time. The loaded data will be placed in the 4 MB shared external memory region.
