How big is RTEMS?

Depending on how you are going to be launching the kernel and if your
bootloader can deal with compressed images, you can probably get it
down to a few hundred k.

I have a hello world that is about 93k compressed, but that is for
i386, and we know that CISC code is usually more compact.
