When building an image with large files it makes sense to compress them in parallel. This series adds support for this as well a few other performance-related tweaks. It also includes support for timing of the different types of operation (e.g. compression), for debugging purposes.
Simon Glass (6): binman: Put compressed data into separate files binman: Support multithreading for building images binman: Split node-reading out from constructor in files binman: Use bytearray instead of string patman: Use bytearray instead of string binman: Add basic support for debugging performance
