    What else do you plan to put into the FPGA?
    
    For the processor alone 300k Xilinx gates is enough. Also depends how you
    configure it, if you strip it of caches, MMUs it will get much smaller. Also
    you can take away some other stuff, including remove some exceptions you
    might now need etc.
    
    I think for your applications you can take Spartan III or equivalent from
    Altera. Low cost FPGAs, but still quite big.
    
    regards,
    Damjan
