That could be the reason then. Sdcards are painfully slow so you get 
what you pay for metaphorically speaking. No big deal either way I guess 
but I much prefer tftp here on a completely 1Gb network and a tftp 
server on a 24/7 Xenserver VM.

Each to their own of course but if I have no network, my server isn't 
much use to me.
