I'm working on reducing the boot time (power on to my C user code running) as much as possible. I've seen demonstrations of an RPi booting in under 1 second.
Does anyone have any idea how much overhead is introduced by the DTB processing? If I were to remove the DTB support in a custom kernel, and hard-code all the necessary peripherals, how much time could I theoretically shave off the boot? It's probably not worth all that effort, but if DTB processing adds two seconds to the boot, it's worth considering. If the overhead is negligible compared to doing it without, that's valuable information, too.
