Harald looked at optimizing the NAND memory speed timings on the GTA02: Some initial experiments show that the performance can be easily improved by 41%. However, the actual speed (6.59MBytes/sec) is still much lower than the theoretical maximum read performance of 15.64MBytes/sec. It seems there is more room for improvement inside the MTD layer of the Linux kernel.

A fix for the 'Echo Bug’ ticket 1267 went in the git around October 15th, it needs testing. See also the thread Echo issue on OM2008.08 solved on the community mailing list.
