The manpage on mknod will help you understand a bit more what's going on perhaps?

As to what the default is for permissions, or why you would be seeing different performance is strange indeed. Have you taken my newest rootfs from this bundle and changed that line? It works, you get tangibly better performance? |
I made the single line change to the rootfs.img that is included in the GBX0B bundle, and I believe it gives tangibly better performance. This is corroborated by the reported higher free memory as well.
