well... how lite is lite?

That would be extreme (the bit equivalent of the limbo -- how small can you go). As such I had not seriously thought that it would be designed to work with the Arduino, but it was an amusing image. BTW, I think the mega gives you something like 256MB, so 0.3% overhead for a database is not bad at all. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
