Here is my bootchart [1]. It's was with the normal fedora setup but with apache and mysql added. In my bootchart i see something i rather don't see.. about 7 seconds nothing in the begin. and the overall speed seems about half of what could be reached... so if that was optimized: 50 sec - 7 (pure nothing) = 43 seconds. 43 / 2 (it it would use the max in reads and cpu) = 21.5 seconds which is a decent boot time. If that's ever gonna happen (don't think so in the near future) than you still have to add about 10 seconds in the begin (bios, grub and kernel boot) and about another 10 seconds for gnome to be completely loaded. Total time at this moment: 70 seconds If it was optimized it could be: 42.5 seconds (but that's under perfect conditions) 2007/11/30, Kulbir Saini <kulbirsaini@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>: > On Thu, 29 Nov 2007, Eric Sandeen wrote: > > > Dimi Paun wrote: > >> Hi folks, > >> > >> I've currently upgraded to F8, congrats! > >> > >> Just thought of sharing a data-point for startup speed > >> (measured from GRUB, so excluding all the BIOS stuff): > >> * to graphical init: 30s > >> * to login prompt: 1m8s > >> * after login, to responsive state: 14s > >> > >> That's 1m22s to start.
