From kernel first log line in the syslog server (I guess timestamps are when rcS.d/ scripts start to run, ie. does not include kernel load time + initrd), to LIRC accepting the VDR client (including a 5s sleep I had to add):* 31s on the ML6000* 16s on a Athlon 2200+* 18s on the M10k That's with a single NFS root filesystem and network boot (no local storage). It does not include kernel + initrd load time over the network, BIOS time, etc. It also does not include specific imrpovement, except "not install unneeded things". The best timing would be from power-on to live-TV on the display.BIOS + PXE (network boot) are ugly in this regard... Initrd is also time-consuming. -- NH _______________________________________________vdr mailing listvdr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
