Title:
  linux and initrd load very slowly on UEFI system

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  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
