I was surprised that this wasn't in the binutils size man page. :(

.text is where the executable code goes.  Sometimes it may also
hold read only data.  .text should be able to be placed in ROM
or Flash.

.data is initialized global/static variables.

.bss is uninitialized global/static variables.

On top of that, you have dynamic heap and RTEMS work space usage
which cannot be determined by size.
