Hi!
I want to implement the function of remote firmware update ESP32 via http. For this, I found a library of updates. First, I just wanted to download the AWS_S3_OTA_Update.ino example, where to add the usual Blink example.
When compiling, I noticed that the sketch occupies 51% of the memory, which is very strange. As far as I understand, for OTA to work, it is necessary to use no more than 50% of the memory so that you can load a new firmware into the chip.
The question is, why so much memory uses this sketch? I can not use external memory, because I need to wait a long time, but there is no time. Thank!

/**
AWS S3 OTA Update
Date: 14th June 2017
Author: Arvind Ravulavaru <https://github.com/arvindr21>
Purpose: Perform an OTA update from a bin located in Amazon S3 (HTTP Only)
Upload:
Step 1 : Download the sample bin file from the examples folder
Step 2 : Upload it to your Amazon S3 account, in a bucket of your choice
Step 3 : Once uploaded, inside S3, select the bin file >> More (button on top of the file list) >> Make Public
Step 4 : You S3 URL => http://bucket-name.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/sketch-name.ino.bin
Step 5 : Build the above URL and fire it either in your browser or curl it `curl -I -v http://bucket-name.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/sketch-name.ino.bin` to validate the same
Step 6: Plug in your SSID, Password, S3 Host and Bin file below
Build & upload
Step 1 : Menu > Sketch > Export Compiled Library. The bin file will be saved in the sketch folder (Menu > Sketch > Show Sketch folder)
Step 2 : Upload bin to S3 and continue the above process
// Check the bottom of this sketch for sample serial monitor log, during and after successful OTA Update

}Debug Messages:
I cannot receive the debug message, because the ESP refuses to work from the PC port due to poor power supply.
