Might be worth Lars checking what connections he has configured. This trick from Lennart's article might be useful: $ systemd-analyze plot > plot.svg $ eog plot.svg (For instance I have to figure out why netfs and iscsi are being started on my machine.) Overall speed, I did a RAM upgrade to my machine yesterday and noticed I didn't have RAM running dual channel, turning that on seemed to make a big improvement to startup speed, will have to time it when I get a chance and see if it's real. -- imalone -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
