Help create maxSize sketch

pYro_65:
Not sure if this will even work ( didn't upload ), but this fills every single byte free on the mega

It also exposes a strange compiler or linker bug. Try this...

#define nothing

template< uint64_t C, typename T >
  struct LargeStruct{
    T Data;
    LargeStruct< C - 1, T > Next;
};
template< typename T > struct LargeStruct< 0, T >{ };

typedef LargeStruct< 80, uint64_t > Container; //640 bytes

PROGMEM LargeStruct< 50, Container > l_Struct;  //32k
PROGMEM LargeStruct< 50, Container > l_Struct1;   //32k
PROGMEM LargeStruct< 50, Container > l_Struct2;   //32k
PROGMEM LargeStruct< 50, Container > l_Struct3;   //32k
PROGMEM LargeStruct< 50, Container > l_Struct4;   //32k
PROGMEM LargeStruct< 50, Container > l_Struct5;  //32k
PROGMEM LargeStruct< 50, Container > l_Struct6;   //32k
PROGMEM LargeStruct< 50, Container > l_Struct7;   //32k

PROGMEM LargeStruct< 431, uint16_t > l_Struct8; //862 bytes
void setup()
  {
    volatile int i = ( int ) &l_Struct;

/usr/share/arduino-1.0.3/hardware/tools/avr/bin/../lib/gcc/avr/4.3.2/../../../avr/bin/ld: region text is full (test.cpp.elf section .text)

That's the error I get with the above code (compiled for the UNO and MEGA2560 both do the same thing).
