Thanks Mr.Wolfgang.

Just a bit more. Is there any reference which provides the
functionalities supported by uboot of size 80KB?

Performance option was wrong. It doesn't mean anything to the
bootloader.

With Thanks and Best Regards,
C.R.Srivatsan

The list of functions is probably much longer; think of  things  like
VLAN support...

U-Boot is typically between 80 ... 230 kB in size, denpending on your
configuration. Performance? Hm... what exactly does this mean  for  a
boot loader?
