Wolfgang, Without progress indicator, slowe test on memory takes minutes and it looks like hanging. You probably don't want to run it every time the board boots up.

Results are suposed to be reported through a mechanism compatible to Linux' syslog system. There is no place for progress indicators here. Please note that your subject "support arch-depended implementation" and the commit message "Add progress indicator" are seriously out of sync as well. Another reason for a NAK.
