I'm not an expert but I think, If you want speed, you should use an SD cards like this:
http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/memory-cards-hdd-odd/memory-cards-accessories/micro-sd-plus-accessories/MB-MPAGA/EU?subsubtype=micro-sd-plus-accessories or something which has min 30 mb/s read speed. I'm using the one in the link and my Beaglebone is working without a problem with TI's Android image. Don't waste your time trying to boot Beaglebone from eMMC. If you use a high speed SD card you'll get better performance.
