Could it be anything to do with differences in the root images used?
eg. different shells (ash is slowwer that standalone).
Therer doesn't seem to be too muych mentioned in the Changelog.
Mods to tty stuff shouldn't give any sort of noticeable difference, or fs
stuff. There is mention of changes to timer code, but I don't see why any
stuff like that should make any noticable difference.
