:name: Minimal footprint
Measure Zephyr's minimal ROM footprint in different configurations.
Overview
********
This sample provides an empty ``main()`` and various configuration files that
can be used to measure Zephyr's minimal ROM footprint in different
configurations.
The following configuration files are available:
* :file:`mt.conf`: Enable multithreading
* :file:`no-mt.conf`: Disable multithreading
* :file:`no-preempt.conf`: Disable preemption
* :file:`no-timers.conf`: Disable timers
* :file:`arm.conf`: Arm-specific disabling of features
Building and measuring ROM size
*******************************
The following combinations are suggested for comparing ROM sizes in different
configurations. They all target the :ref:`reel_board` (Arm Aarch32 architecture).
* Multithreading enabled
* Reference ROM size: 7-8KB
