Hi,
this is a question I receive froom some Fedora Core 3 users. After
they have tried Ubuntu, they complained about the 'slow speed' of
Fedora. Their major complain are the number of seriveces enabled by
default event though they choose to do desktop installation. Another
complain I heard are the memory on which they use Ubuntu (once again)
to be efficient. How should I respend on that kind of question?
It is possible by using parallel loading (there is a thing on the IBM
website, but it's not for the easily scared!).
The thing you've got to remember with Ubuntu is that it really is a
minimal running Linux - if you stripped down the number of services FC
starts on power up to the same as Ubuntu, you'd find the boot up is
faster (not having to boot from CD).
Currently, I've not got that many services running on either my laptop
or this PC and it's on the desktop ready for me to use in just shy of 90
seconds - which is much faster than Ubuntu!
TTFN

Parallel loading doen't help much. This have already been discussed in
the devel-list.
