Public bug reported:

On a Intel Tunnel Mountain system, grub2 loads from disk very slowly
when booting with UEFI:  about 53 seconds to execute a pair of "linux"
and "initrd" commands.

Expected behavior:
    Load time for linux and initrd should be on order of 1 second.

Problem observed with:
    grub2 (oneiric) 1.99-12ubuntu5
    grub2 (precise) 1.99-14ubuntu2
    Intel Tunnel Mountain UEFI BIOS version SDV.TM.B8 or SDV.TM.B9

** Affects: grub2 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
