Why would you copy more than one subroutine in RAM? The only thing you will

the MSP430 can program itself when executing from flash. the flash
controler handles that nicely.
I've read about it, unfortunately that doesn't work for page programming
which is much faster than programming byte after byte.
I don't know what you mean.
You can't program byte by byte. It has to be word by word.
A write takes about 75us per word. 60K bytes (30K words) would only take
2.25s + the software overhead. It's not exactly slow. Overheads, rather
than word by word writing, are the usual limiting factor.
