 It works ok, but after a few resumes it slows dramaticly due to verbose

 With u-boot, I reduced the kernel verbosity to get a happy medium, but
 it looks like Qi cant do this unless you are booting from SD.

That's correct as I understand it. Qi doesn't understand jffs2 so it can't 
read the usual file where the extra options would live. You should be able to 
drop the loglevel at runtime using:
dmesg -n 4
This sets the console log level to warnings and above. It won't help with the 
boot time, but does a lot for the resume time.
