Is there any update on this issue ? I'm trying to debug an application ported to quark_se which is about 160K binary size. Takes >10 minutes to load to flash (openocd 0.8.0-dev-gba72ade) making the development cycle extremely slow. Tried tweaking jtag clock speeds in the .cfg scripts but doesn't seem to make any difference, and loading direct through openocd is only slightly faster than gdb
What's the limiting factor on flashing speed - can't be the on-chip memory itself surely ?
