We have about 4 entries in the typical CBFS. I just don't see how the price of walking it can be a major item. It used to be until I created the "giant empty space" file. Now, walking a whole LAR can be done in short order. I'm happy to time it but I bet uncached it's still far less than one millisecond. We should always cache ROM and, if we are not, then, we should. I guess I am not sure this is a huge problem. ron -- coreboot mailing list: [email protected] http://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
