Hi Debian Team
My is Caio and I have a little idea for Debian system. My idea to you is
the creation of a system exclusive for Flash USB, external HDD or SSD.
Already exist the GNU/Linux Slax, such system able to install directly
in a Flash USB, and its performance is really good, but it is a simple
system. Thus my idea is about the creation of Debian for portables
devices, which will be really interesting have a portable OS or
multiples portables OS for new uses.
I hope that idea can be good for all users and new applications.
Bye.
I run my daily machine from a USB-Stick for years now without any
problems. I simply installed to the USB-Stick and not to the HDD. Of
course, USB3 is highly recommended over USB2. Nevertheless, USB2 does
also work for me and I am also using it daily.
My most important finding on system responsiveness is that minimum 2 MB
CPU cache is required, and at least 3 MB is wanted. This parameter to me
came out to be the most significant one to consider. Besides this, 4
years ago (I did not compare it recently) the usage of the GNOME desktop
slowed down responsiveness strongly and I therefore decided for KDE
Plasma which does not make me any problems on an almost 10 years old 4
GB RAM and Intel Core2Duo CPU hardware.
Good luck!
Marco.
