Ignoring some smaller tasks (mainly network manager and related tasks) the boot is done in less than 92s. I don't know if that's what you expected (with sreadahead ist took about 98.5s without auto-login), but it is a clearly a speedup.
Deactivating the screensaver (kasciiaquarium) saves two seconds. Downside: Unless the mouse isn't moved to show the password prompt, the screen keeps black and you don't know if KDE has started yet or not. So to get correct measurements two seconds have to be subtracted, but for me this isn't practical for everydays use. ** Attachment added: "After removing /var/lib/ureadahead/*pack" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35494080/amilo-karmic-20091110-9.png -- performs poorly on slow HDD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/432089 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
