2.4.26 and MPC885 context switching time

Hi all,

i'm evaluating IPC on the MPC885ADS and discovered
that the context switching times seem to be quite 
disappointing (up to 1ms). As we need to do a lot 
of IPC later on, i'm interested bringing the time 
down.

Therefore i wonder, if there are any known problems 
with the MMU on 8xx and 2.4.2x which might explain 
that? 

Or is this the expected context switching time for 
CPU @ 100 MHz (RAM @ 50 MHz)? Suggestions for a 
benchmark program?

Thanks!

  Peter
