Dear Nick Thompson,
In message 4B1E71D9.6080802@ge.com you wrote:
Improve read performance from Large Page NAND devices.
This patch produces a ~31% improvement in oob_first read speed (on a 300MHz ARM9). The time for a mid-buffer 2k page read is now 293us, 6.99MB/s (was 385us, 5.31MB/s). oob_first is probably the best case improvement.

I tested this on mpc5121ads (sector size 128 KiB) and sequoia (sector size 16 KiB).
The patch applied not cleanly against "master" (but was easy to fix).
However, I did not notice any changes to the speed for a "nand read" at all.
Is this not the right flash types, or not thr right type of test?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
