Try "info size" which is a little bit better.

But basically, text==code, and data+bss==your program data. This totals
71380 bytes in this case (rather large for such a simple case, but easily
reduced by tailoring your eCos configuration if you choose).

For a program programmed into ROM/Flash, you would find the total ROM usage
to be text+data, and the total RAM usage to be data+bss.
