Evening all
I am trying to get bootchart to work (it provides a graphical view of
the boot process in an attempt to help resolve slow boot up).
I have been following this page:
https://www.linux.org/docs/man1/systemd-bootchart.htm
If I open the command line and type sudo
/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-bootchart -r the application will run and
produce an .svg file in /run/log
But my understanding is that it should produce a file upon bootup, but
it does not. Here my bootchart.conf file
[Bootchart]
Samples=500
Frequency=25
#Relative=no
#Filter=yes
Output=<botchart, defaults to /run/log>
Init=/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-bootchart
#PlotMemoryUsage=no
#PlotEntropyGraph=no
#ScaleX=100
#ScaleY=20
#ControlGroup=no
#PerCPU=no
So I have three questions,
Why is it not running on bootup?
I want to add the -r option, it make the file smaller, I do I just
append it the the end of the init line in the conf file?
And it is normal for any files produced, put into /run/log disappear
after a reboot?
Ultimately I am trying to find what is slowing up my bootup time which
is slower on the current version of Mint XFCE than the previous version
by about 2.5 sec. I am aware of systemd-Analyze and other systemd
commands but if anybody has any good web page on the subject or
application to help resolve the bootup time issues please pass the details.
