Ok, let me be more precise on this.
We used U-Boot v2010.09 on a custom board running on an I.MX35 (ARM1136).
We noticed the following code snippet took relatively long.

We added PIN toggling around this part of code and measured something >100ms.
A collegue said it was ~100ms, I remembered ~500ms. Dunno who is right.
