In the default configuratino yes. Remember that an eighth of that is
reserved for the ROM monitor, and perhaps most importantly for a "RAM"
startup application, the RAM footprint will include code as well as data.
The complete TCP/IP stack is a lot of code. The POSIX layer isn't that
small either.

None of those factors would apply in a final production build where you
would execute your application from Flash/ROM directly.

And there's lots of configuration that could be used too anyway.
