This patch adds time measurement and throughput calculation for the ext2load and
ext4load commands.
The output of ext2load changes from
---8<---
Loading file "/boot/uImage" from mmc device 0:1
1830666 bytes read
--->8---
to
---8<---
Loading file "/boot/uImage" from mmc device 0:1

There, "time_start" is clearly a mis-nomer. How about
s/time_start/time/ ?
> + print_size(filelen / time_start * 1000, "/s");
Does this give reasonable results for small files, say when loading a
20 byte file ?
Best regards,

sounds better, however this is a plane copy from Simons tftp measurement
patch.

Well, possible no:

But as you see extremely short transfers are omitted due to time
difference of '0' (at least on my avr32 system here).
The main aim for this patch was to measure performance gain of Josh Wu's
gen_atmel_mci patch for multiple block access, hopefully this is useful
for others.
I would like to have some feedback how the measurement is for very small
files on other systems. Then I could provide a v2 which uses another
variable name for the time.
Best regards

I'm fine with not giving a speed on <1 ms transactions. Lets see a v2
with the new variable name, thanks!

since v1:
* use 'time' instead of 'time_start' as suggested by Wolfgang
since v2:
* rebase on top of 045fa1e1142552799ad3203e9e0bc22a11e866ea
Now there is some more overhead in the measurement caused by the respective
fs-type functions (detect fs-type, eventually do mount and so on).
Nevertheless I think such a measurement is good for further improvements
like increasing throughput by whatever measures.

I've just seen v3 is marked superseded in patchwork
(http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/195465/), can you please tell why?

Too quick on the triage I guess, sorry, put back as New.
