Good point Matthieu. Indeed, _at least_ 1.23 sec is spend in the driver
for scanning against bad eraseblocks to build in-memory bad block table
(BBT). And it is probably more than 1.23 sec. If you start using
on-flash bad block table, this should go away. I never used on-flash
BBT, but I know MTD supports this and for example OLPC has on-flash BBT.
