Using various online suggestions found in forums and blogs on boot and setup 
adjustments I had managed to reduce a Raspian setup to boot headless and 
loading several instances of PD to run on a couple of reserved cores (using 
jack2) in about 23 seconds. Some of the obvious ones were purging any apps that 
would not be used as well as reducing the services. I think to remember that 
disabling networking made quite a difference as it avoids several ‘waiting’ 
loops, but obviously that restricts possible applications significantly and is 
therefore only useful if you are after a ’standalone’ audio setup.

I wish I would have kept a conclusive list what I had done and what worked, but 
as I had several quite severe fails in the process and I had tried that while 
being new to pi and linux, I ended up not quite having a complete overview of 
the final version and steps. I’m very interested in the piCore os, thanks 
Thomas for making compiles available for it!

Best,
Sebastian
