Half a second or less on kword, konqueror, evolution, and epiphany. As computers get faster, prelink will still save relative time, but the absolute difference will become less and less perceptible. I know a second here and there adds up, but given the downsides, sooner or later prelink should be revisited. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxx> Senior Systems Architect Cyberinfrastructure Labs Computing & Information Technology Harvard School of Engineering & Applied Sciences -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
