General – Arduino Optiboot Boot-loader

I’ll soon be updating the Hobbyduino Mini to the Optiboot boot-loader.  According to the Optiboot Google Code Page:

  • Allows larger sketches.
  • Is a quarter of the size of the default bootloader freeing 1.5k of extra space.
  • Sketches upload faster.
  • Optiboot operates at higher baud rates and has streamlined programming.
  • Adaboot performance improvements.
  • Runs sketches sooner with no watchdog issues.
  • Compatible with 168 and 328 Arduinos.
