Out of interest, how old is that JFFS2 test? If it's with the ancient
code in the 2.4 kernel, you'll get a _lot_ of improvement by using the
2.6 kernel.

It looks like it took about 13 seconds to mount the onboard 8MiB flash.
I can mount 512MiB of flash in 7.9 seconds with the current kernel, with
a 400MHz AMD Geode.

There's more work going on right now to reduce the memory usage too.
