 #### RAM usage
 
-The largest supported display is a 320x240 ILI9341 unit. On a Pi Pico with no
-use of frozen bytecode the demos run with about 70K of free RAM. Substantial
-improvements can be achieved on all platforms by using frozen bytecode.
+Running the `linked_sliders` demo, the code uses about 23,000 bytes with frozen
+bytecode and 55,000 bytes without. To this must be added the size of the frame
+buffer. This can readily be calculated. For example in the case of the ILI9341
+(a 240x320 pixel unit whose driver uses 4-bit color) the buffer size is  
+`240x320/2 = 38,400` bytes.
+
+A Pico shows ~182000 bytes free with no code running. With `linked_sliders`
+running on an ILI9341 display, it shows 120,896 bytes free with frozen
+bytecode and 88,640 bytes free without.
