Trying to reduce espressif32 and espressif8266 build size to match arduino studio

maz_net_au · May 13, 2022, 2:53pm

Hi,
This is my 3rd attempt to move from Arduino Studio to Platform.io for my own IoT project and I have made significant progress (I finally have it compiling for all my targets from platformio). However, the resulting binary size for a d1_mini (esp8266) is 437,041 bytes from Arduino Studio but 645,205 bytes from Platformio. That is such an enormous difference that I am unable to deploy it to some of the same hardware and none of them are able to have OTA updates anymore which is a deal-breaker for devices embedded in walls for obvious reasons.

I’m using both espressif32 and espressif8266 platforms with multiple boards each but I’m happy to focus on just a wemos D1 mini and solve that one.

my ini file is

[env]
monitor_speed = 115200
framework = arduino
build_flags = 
	-D__VERSION="3.0.0.0"
	-w
lib_deps = 
	ArduinoJson
	StreamUtils
	makuna/NeoPixelBus@^2.6.9
	me-no-dev/ESP Async WebServer@^1.2.3
	slocomptech/QList@^0.6.7
extra_scripts = pre:rename_bin.py

[env:d1_mini]
board = d1_mini
platform = espressif8266
board_build.filesystem = littlefs
board_build.ldscript = eagle.flash.4m3m.ld
build_flags = 
	${env.build_flags}
	-DBOARD_VARIANT="d1_mini"
	-DBOARD_FLASH_SIZE="4M"
	-D__HARDWARE_GENERATION="LOLIN(WEMOS) D1 R2 & mini"
lib_deps = 
	${env.lib_deps}
	me-no-dev/ESPAsyncTCP@^1.2.2

I figure that the difference is going to be with either the core platform being included, or the compiler flags being different, or both. I tried a verbose build out of platformio to try and catch the compiler flags but the terminal window doesn’t have enough scrollback to get them.
size
I’m not sure if 136kb of “unknown” is normal with this build system.

So really I’m looking for hints and suggestions for how to find the cause of my oversized binaries. I desparately need a more capable build system than Arduino Studio can offer but obviously the requirement that my code fit on the board is more important.

The project is about 3700 lines, so I have opted to not include the code here. I did convert the .ino file to main.cpp.

Here is a chunk of the build log (not verbose) which might be useful

Any ideas?

What version of Arduino-ESP8266 does it use? What version of xtensa-lx106-elf-gcc does it use? Have 100% equialized the version of all used libraries? Have you got access to a verbose compilation log from Arduino Studio?

Thanks for your reply.

Not sure. I’m using esp8266 v3.0.2 from the boards manager. How do I find my xtensa version?
EDIT: in the Arduino log I see “10.3-1757bed” which matches the toolchain version listed against the Espressif 8266 platform.

As far as I can tell, yes. There are a lot fewer libraries in this than I thought.

Unfortunately the log is too long so i snipped out the middle. Apparently the full log exceeds the limits of a post here and on pastebin.
This is basically my first embedded project so I’m still working things out as I go.

I was expecting the command line with compiler flags to come out of platform.io’s verbose build but all i saw was the parsed ini file.

maz_net_au · May 14, 2022, 5:23am

I had a look at the binaries coming out in a hex editor and just at a cursory glance it looks like all the libraries are being build with debug symbols and other non-optimised build flags. is there a way to specify or control the building of libraries loaded in platform.io’s UI?

maz_net_au · May 14, 2022, 1:06pm

So I googled some of the spurious strings and I found them here

There’s 95kb of “/include/bits” in my binary. Is this normal? That’s where those random strings are from anyway (locale_facets_nonio.tcc etc) so Arduino Studio doesn’t include all of this, if any.

Did you ever find a solution to this? I have run into a similar problem and a looking for solutions.
