Hi. I tried to improve my boot time by using readahead. After booting with "profile" readahead generated /etc/readahead/boot. But now my boot time increased from 30s to 41s. readahead takes really long during "Reading files needed to boot...".
bootchart output: - without readahead: http://choerbaert.org/scy/pics/bootchart/2.6.24.4_normal.png - with readahead: http://choerbaert.org/scy/pics/bootchart/2.6.24.4_readahead.png Hardware: 1.86GHz CPU, 1024MB RAM, harddisk reaches about 42 MB/sec What's the reason for this strange result?
