SDK 4.2.1 breaks compatibility with fenix 6 (only in simulator?)

Both fenix 6 and fenix 6 pro now break in the simulator (worked fine in 4.1.7).

fenix 6 breaks with an out-of-memory error when pressing Enter key on the glance view. I added breakpoints to the widget entry points, but the widget is never loaded, it runs out of memory in garmin's CIQ code.

fenix 6 pro runs out of memory from the start and never enters the code (using the debugger).

Error: System Error
Details: Failed loading application

Encountered app crash.


Works fine on e.g. venu, fenix 7, fr 965, etc.
Also fenix 6 pro runs fine if I disable the glance view in the simulator.
I would prefer to not have to rollback the SDK version since it would lose support for the newer devices.

I have a fenix 6 pro device and the widget runs fine on it (with glances enabled), on the other end I received several reports of users with fenix 6 (non pro) that now cannot open the widget.

I can follow-up with more info, just contact me.

    1. what are your build's parameters? -O and -r at least (I used release and -O2z)

    2. do you see a difference in the Code/Data (any other???) size when you look in the Memory View? Or the difference is only in the Memory Usage/Peak Memory?

    It would be probably useful if you could find some stripped down version of your code that is possible to publish and can reproduce the problem (maybe not the whole big increase but even 0.1k increase shouldn't be there)

    BTW I just double checked my app on fenix3 in 4.1.7 uses 13.9kB and in 4.2.1 uses 14.0 kB ("Memory Usage") so no I can reproduce the problem as well. All the other numbers are identical. I can imagine that because in my case the difference is around 0.1kB it might have been so small that the last time I checked I didn't notice it.
