 * New version of loadagent has added support for the new binary protocols for
   memory dumps, flash programming and XRAM loading.
 
-* All loadtools programs: the step of feeding the IRAM code image to the
-  Calypso boot ROM has been sped up by about 700 ms by grouping contiguous
-  S-record payloads into larger blocks (up to the boot ROM limit of 1014 bytes
-  per block) instead of sending each S-record payload (30 bytes typically) as
-  its own write command.
