            At this stage, dynamic memory allocation by

            able to allocate variable sized chunks of memory
            from it). This option is the size
            of that pool, in bytes. Note that not all of
            this is available for programs to
            use - some is needed for internal information
            about memory regions, and some may be lost to
            ensure that memory allocation only returns
            memory aligned on word (or double word)

            If this is what is required, enable this option.
            However, if enabled, the dynamic memory allocation 
            code is always linked in to the application,
            even if it is not explicitly called and new/delete
            are not used.
