435,772 bytes seems awfully large for an audio driver. The large size seems to be due to having support for multiple codecs in the driver. Could a generic hda driver load the correct codec dynamically instead of building them all in statically?
I have a Realtek codec.
snd_hda_intel should probably be rearchitected to be similar to the way that snd-aoa works... e.g. multiple modules for codecs, etc.
But, that's a lot of effort, and I don't personally have the hardware to test (only one box of mine has HDA audio that I know of, and I use a better card there), or I would start working on making that happen.
