Re: [U-Boot] JFFS2 with NAND flash is very SLOW ...

In my side: MTD0 (720kB): U-boot MTD1 (80kB) : env. Variables MTD2 (12MB) : kernel + initramfs MTD3 (50MB) : rootfs
Maybe it will not help you but I have
MTD0 (all the nand 256M) MTD1 uboot+ embedded config 2M RAW MTD2 1M JFFS2 MTD5 config 5M JFFS2 MTD3 Kernel + initramfs 12M JFFS2 MTD4 KernelBKp 12M JFFS2 MTD5 content 224M
Scanning and fsload of the MTD3 partition take 3 seconds with 2009.03 With 1.3.4 it was something like 6-10 seconds. But never 1 minute. I have seen that when scanning the content partition of 224M.
If it exists a difference between 2009.03 and 1.3.3 it is not sufficient. It is very slow in both versions. It takes more than 1 minutes to obtain the result of "fsinfo" command !!!

Parameters like I-cache and D-cache handling greatly effect this scan time. Some platforms have caches enabled others don't. This might explain some differences here.

Is it better to use or not D-cache and I-cache? Currently, in my config file, I have only #define CONFIG_CMD_CACHE What do I have to add?
Thanks in advance for your help.
