use linuxboot, don't use UEFI payload. That's what we've done at Google, among other companies (ByteDance too).
if you use linuxboot, then you get our pxeboot written in Go, and that can use http to pull the image down as well as tftp; http is literally (measured) 100x faster. I would avoid using those buggy UEFI DXE at all cost. A Linuxboot payload can be as small as a few MiB, which easily fits in today's SPI parts.
