Can anyone explain this, and is there an adjustment to speed it up.
Maybe you are using different vga and video modes/resolutions than in
your earlier test {that are less common and scanned for later}, or a
different monitor.
Some monitors seem to change quickly into power save mode, and then
take some time until they can show an image again {especially
For my nvidia fx5600 and dell 1024x768M LCD using nv driver:

To X takes less than 1 second.

I have noted in the lists continued work on X and auto DPMS/edid etc
monitor improvements. This might mean that the monitor detection is
performed at every change {on your pc/card/monitor}, whereas before a
hard written mode line was in the conf file.

I hadn't rebooted for a few weeks. In the mean time I had run lots of X
programs and many console programs. When I rebooted, the behavior is
similar to the behavior you describe above, and in comparison with the
previous behavior could be described as 'crisp'. I suspect something
has a memory leak, and cruft is building up over time.
Thanks everyone for the responses.
