Thx a lot i'll try that at work.
So the .elf i obtain from the arm-elf-objcopy command isn't good ?
What do i have to do to make the actual file i'll upload to my board ?

ihex is an ASCII format of "binary", so you cannot just look at the
file size.

A much better way to get an idea of the footprint is arm-elf-size.

So here there is a little over 10K of code in the text segment and 0.5K
of data. The bss, which goes in RAM is just under 33K.
