I'm asking this just see if we bump up in size if it should be to 768k or 1M. While this doesn't directly impact the TQM or XES boards I just wanted to get a sense of how much flash people are putting on boards today to see if 1M is a burden or in the noise w/regards to the size of things. My desire is if we support a different size on 8536DS that its a size other boards would be ok with if they needed to grow. - k
