In particular, over ten megabytes of physical RAM could be saved at install
by running prelink before freezing the install root filesystem.  A shared library
that has been prelinked does not have to be relocated (dirtied) at runtime by ld-linux;
the typical savings is 1 to 10 pages per shared library.  anaconda uses over
200 shared libraries; metacity over 70; Xorg over 40.
