I have a standard NSLU2 on which I have removed the under clocking to
give me 266.26 BogoMIPS
However, occasionally it boots up as a quicker machine (~1 in 10)
I'm using Armel.

I don't think this a reporting error
Mplayer playing Real Audio from the BBC gives
A:218269.7 (60:37:49.7) of 0.0 (unknown) 32.3% against 65% CPU on a
slow boot
Whilst the BBC is playing I can also run aptitude and the audio is
unaffected.
top also shows half the normal CPU usage for most applications.
mpd playing .m4a files use 25%, .mp3 files use less than 1%
rsync pulling a .avi from the remote rsync daemon on the Slug gives:
368027292 100% 3.73MB/s 0:01:34 (xfer#1, to-check=0/1)
sent 50 bytes received 368072356 bytes 3894946.10 bytes/sec
total size is 368027292 speedup is 1.00
scp tv.avi 100% 351MB 1.9MB/s 03:09
(sshd took 90% CPU)
Are these stats normal for a Slug?
Is there a reliable way to get it to boot fast?
