Jeff: Can you look at the recent changes to the net/next tree/branch? On a slow connection -- I saw things go from 15:28 download (tftpblocksize == 1468) to 1:47 (tftpblocksize == 16268) - more than a 8x difference. Even if you look at the your stated time of 50min - that should drop it to a more reasonable ~6ish.... _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
