Seems like it would be better if gnome itself did this precaching when it starts - not the boot process. (maybe that's what you meant). I don't know if gnome does its own caching of the icons after the first read, or if it reads the files each time you click and hopes for OS caching? I agree though, waiting for the first click to go drag the icons off the disk is painful. > Now about the caching itself. > Wouldn't it be best to precache all the applications that are gonna be > started anyway? like: > - gome-desktop > - gnoma-panel > - the default gnome applets .... that's called "readahead" right? We have the infrastructure, but I think it needs some love. It's hard to keep the file list up to date, and when it's wrong, it hurts more than it helps... -Eric -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
