Slow SPI - anyone else seeing this?

I've been testing the NanoPi Duo with the included Ubuntu build. For some reason, the SPI can only achieve about 3Mhz (based on my observed ili9341 LCD refresh rate). Other H2+ boards can normally go as high as 33Mhz (~30FPS update). Anyone else seeing this issue?

I tried booting the NanoPi Duo with a mainline (4.11) Linux build for Orange Pi Zero (same CPU). The SPI speed is fine, so it's purely a software problem on the part of FriendlyElec's Linux build.

Here's a video of my game emulator running with my SPI code on the Duo and ili9341. This is a recent Armbian build for the Orange Pi Zero instead of the awful build shipped by FriendlyElec.
