Why does an Arduino sketch take up so much precious code space? A few lines of code takes up 2k? Also, can I create a MAP file somehow (to answer the above question?)?

Thanks for the info.

A fellow programmer here at work claims there must be a way to get a MAP file of the code. Is that possible?
