Yesterday and today there was some discussion about uboot size at IRC
[1] [2].

Yes, the ~800k size of uboot is due to uncompressed tone and logo
data. Removing this results in uboot ~150k. Result (untested) and
patch in attachment.

And as requested at IRC an untested version with additional move of
env from 0xc0000 to 0x260000.

Works great, boot time has decreased significantly, haven't tried to
use uboot and x-loader from nand yet
