Hi Fundu,

Please bottom post.

Run "${CROSS_COMPILE}objdump -h u-boot" and you will see that there are 
lots of non-loaded segments (symbols, etc.) in there.

Run "${CROSS_COMPILE}strip -s u-boot -o=u-boot.strip" and you will see 
that u-boot.strip is approximately the same size as u-boot.bin.  NOTE: I 
would *NOT* recommend stripping the ELF file unless you have a real need 
to do so.
