Vl53l0x space consuming programs

Hi Im trying to get a program running with the VL53L0X sensor and its evaluation shield X-Nucleo-53L0A1 on the Evaluation board Nucleo-F401RE.

I have used the hello world example here:

The code works fine, but I think it consumes a lot of space at the flash (around 46 kB). Even if I remove a lot of the unused code I have only been able to cut it down to 43 kB.

I think it is very high, especially since I would like to have the sensor running as a part of a system, at a chip with say 16 to 64 kB flash.

Does anyone have experience with the size of the API environment from ST and an estimate of how much space it should cost, just to initialize it and take some measurements?
