JFFS2 on 8MB Flash-Chip conneted to MPC850 works extremly slow :(

[Wojciech Kromer]

I have JFFS2 on my 8MBFujitsu Flash Chip connected to MPC850 (50Mhz).
I've decided to have root file system on that flash, but it boots
extremly slow.
It takes about 5 minutes. With compressed initial ram disk on flash it
takes less
than 30s.

Q1 Why?
Q2 I work on mtd-snapshot-20010628.tar.bz2. Are there any speed changes
in furthere releases?
