I'm quite familiar with embedded development :), and indeed trezor MCU
is what I would generally consider (over-)powered which is why I was
somewhat surprised by the numbers; I'm certainly not expecting you to
perform dynamic allocation... but wasn't clear on how 40 minutes and
was I just trying to understand. Using a table to avoid retransmitting
reused transactions is just an optimization and can be done in
constant memory (e.g. falling back to retransmission if filled).

So what I'm understanding now is that you stream the transaction along
with its inputs interleaved in order to reduce the memory requirement
to two midstates and a value accumulator; requiring resending the
transaction... so in the worst case transaction (since you can't get
in more than about 800 inputs at the maximum transaction size) each
input spending from (one or more, since even one would be repeated)
100kb input transactions you might send about 800MBytes of data, which
could take a half an hour if hashing runs at 45KB/s or slower?

(If so, okay then there isn't another thing that I was missing).
