What happens to overall boot time if rhgb and dhclient is disabled, with and without readahead? Both rhgb and dhclient seem like they can be optimized individually â so their contribution to overall boot time can be disregarded while studying the rest of the boot process â and given the relative runtime and order of readahead vs. the following processes, readahead looks like it may be wasted here. Also interesting would be a graph of a minimal boot â disable all nonessential services; portmap, rpc, gpm, cups, etc. â into text console. It'd reduce the ânoiseâ in the graph and might reveal something interesting about the remaining processes. Oh, BTW, what is that apparent zombie of S04readahead_early? Just a timing issue with the sampling? - -- We've gotten to the point where a human-readable, human-editable text format for structured data has become a complex nightmare where somebody can safely say "As many threads on xml-dev have shown, text-based processing of XML is hazardous at best" and be perfectly valid in saying it. -- Tom Bradford -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP SDK 3.0.3 iQA/AwUBQZtH+KPyPrIkdfXsEQK2ZACgtsXtklJ9HzW0L64p8VRlQaayl+cAn2+T RGUpDCi4VClme+IEw6Bw24je =mbaw -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
