Changes I did:
Have the protocols in RAM
#ifdef ESP8266
// because of timing reasons we keep that in memory on esp8266
static const RCSwitch::Protocol proto[] = {
#else
static const RCSwitch::Protocol PROGMEM proto[] = {
#endif

Changes to receiveProtocol (called by ISR)
#ifdef ESP8266
bool ICACHE_RAM_ATTR RCSwitch::receiveProtocol(const int p, unsigned int changeCount) {
#else
bool RCSwitch::receiveProtocol(const int p, unsigned int changeCount) {
#endif
