You might be right about the hardware, and in that case, yes, it would make sense to put the frequently-used files on a smaller piece of faster but more expensive memory. But the application manager / apt is not a frequently used application. I do not care if checking for new updates takes 10 or 20 s. So if you are right, the original partitioning decisions are even worse than I thought - wasting precious fast memory on stuff that definitely doesn't need the speed. > I take no exception to saying it's a poor design choice > (IN YOUR OPINION) that they didn't go with a device with > full class 6 flash I am not talking about hardware design, but a very simple software/set-up choice. One that, as you yourself point out, can easily be fixed at no cost. All I am saying is that it *should* be fixed.
