I am trying to improve the load time of the gtk module. The attached patch is a first attempt at reducing the number of relocations.
The results of applying this patch were _gtk.so-orig: 12122 relocations, 12081 relative (99%), 3451 PLT entries, 0 for local syms (0%), 0 users _gtk.so-patch: 11928 relocations, 11887 relative (99%), 3451 PLT entries, 0 for local syms (0%), 0 users I think that most relative relocations are generated because of global tables with pointer to strings of functions. I have no idea why there are so many PLTs. Rafael Python for maemo, INdT
