I don't. Didn't measure it, but this loading and descrambling takes pretty long, will probably double your boot time. In fact, the boot time is about 4 seconds now since I introduced the checking for ajbrec.ajz present. I'm thinking about taking this out again. If we can easily flash without risk, we don't really need that feature. You still have the manual rolo if for special purpose you need another software. > BTW: I think flashing the rom will due at minimum 60 Seconds. The flashing is pretty quick, just some seconds. For those concerned about the wear: the chip is specified for 100.000 cycles. > If you flash Every daily build you have to boot at minimum > 5 times a day to gain the time lost by flashing. (Just thinking about how often I need to reboot before the weeks of work on this pay off) Jörg -- +++ GMX - Mail, Messaging & more http://www.gmx.net +++ Jetzt ein- oder umsteigen und USB-Speicheruhr als Prämie sichern!Received on 2003-07-07 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
