Does FBD (Function Block Diagram) consume more memory than the same code written in ST or RLL? I assume it has to store the XY axis information for blocks, and then the connector joins the cells for execution.

I'm aware each does not contain the exact instructions, but if I conform similar code in each, on average, does one consume more memory by the nature of the language?

RLL and ST instructions are in order with the language's nature and do not require any positioning.
