connection problems with HY-MINISTM32V 3.2

What's the actual speed of the display when using your driver code? The one that comes with the HY is neatly fast and fun, especially to use compared to the SPI-only ILI I use with Gordon's board right now (because of the CC3000). Behaves more like a Etch-a-Sketch than a display.

I suspect there's something about the js ILI module that slows it to well below the potential of the hardware - 2MB/s is not "etch-a-sketch" speed. I haven't gotten a chance to look at it. I got a display with a similar controller and was going to write a module for it based on the existing ILI module, but I was so disappointed when I saw how tiny the screen was (and after failing entirely to make another display I bought at the same time work), I got depressed and went back to monochrome displays.
