So, after all this, I think we still need the lzma change that Arne proposed. I have found that the videobios decompress is still slow, which is after the rom caching is disabled.
I thought the decompress itself needed to run from ROM for us to see this. What kind of video bios is this; is it embedded in the coreboot image or is it hosted on an external video card? I have a vague recollection of there being a facility or hook that allowed option roms to copy themselves from ROM to RAM, could that be involved here?
