Some of those numbers change significantly when 
you have less (or more) memory.  For example on 
the two systems I have sitting on my desk:
-----------------------------------------------
Desktop (p2)      262144    704     416    2776  
Laptop (p1)        24768    704     416     420
Sindi's (p2)       66488    704     416    5368  
-----------------------------------------------
It is clear from this that the BL3 kernel takes 
1120 kb plus a variable amount of space for data 
(depending on how much RAM is available).
 
BTW are you sure your 66466K figure is correct?
It's really just 64mb?  From your Data figure
I would guess you really have ten times that 
much RAM.
