No, I suspect that's the ~1.5s it takes to verify the signature on the dev key. For many deployments that will be 1.5s to check a signature on an activation lease. The original design was to cache that check in some secure manner, but there's not really any appropriate protected space on the G1G1 design. (SPI flash would be it, but it's too risky to write to routinely.) --scott -- ( http://cscott.net/ ) _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
