I also thought it may be RAM, but in their list of "highlights" it actually says "Complete TCP/IP in less than 12 KB of ROM". There is no mention of any packet buffer solution similar to lwip "chain of pbufs", so I guess the RAM requirements of the interniche lite stack are just as high as their regular stack, with a full 1500bytes allocated for every packet regardless of actual size. /Timmy Brolin
