Thanks,

commit 9029c47f883306bc75afe881a08504e9b906485f
Author: Edgar E. Iglesias <edgar.iglesias@petalogix.com>

    pflash: Buffer block writes
    
    Buffer block writes to avoid flushing every word access onto backing
    storage device. This significantly speeds up flash emulation for flashes
    connected through an 8 or 16-bit bus combined with backing storage (-pflash).
