Dream on, it's not really needed and there's a trick under Linux with the nvidia driver to re-gain 64MBs that the drive steals.

I've done that hack, and the FE is still slooooow when switching between menus, starting up movies, etc. Yes, this is with the lowest memory theme I can find, and nothing else running. It works, but trying to explain to my wife that she needs to not hammer the arrow button on the remote is hard..."just wait for it to catch up, honey."

720p or 1080p display setting ? Not to point fingers but this was something that forced me to move to XBMC as a FE for mythtv. Caching all the user screens in memory was a real killer for performance on a RAM limited platform. Not sure how it works now.
