Very interesting. Do you comparison on how slow/fast DT version w.r.t
ACPI and similarly for the memory footprint ? It would be good to add
those information as well. I know some systems just use ACPI static tables
as they don't run ACPICA runtime interpretter, was that experimented as
well or it wasn't used due to some specific(details please) limitations
without it.
