Yes, it's a little bit snappier, but you still have to wait for applications to load since the real bottleneck here is the CPU.

Anyway, I can't really do any comparisons since I don't have the  eMMC in my PBP anymore.
The repository was updated with SPI image Wink

So we can finally boot directly from NVMe? What do we have to do for that?

edit: I noticed this link https://github.com/pcm720/rockchip-u-boot/releases and this step:

# dd if=spiflash.bin of=/dev/mtd0

So after flashing, it will allow to boot from NVMe without eMMC? what about SD card priority?
