 		 #156725 - This should come as no surprise

printf has a lot of baggage

This should come as no surprise!

Just look at the documentation for the full printf in any textbook or compiler manual - you will find that it runs to several pages just to cover all the options that it provides!

Thus it's hardly surprising that a function so capable takes a lot of code to implement.

In fact, it's probably quite impressive that Keil can cram all that lot into just 4K...!!
