I'm using XIP on a device with 32MB RAM. The reason I use it is _partly_ to save RAM, partly because programs start about 10 times faster (reading NOR flash is slow and I keep the XIP region in RAM) and partly because it reduces memory fragmentation. -- Jamie -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-embedded" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
