Holy. Crap. 17 seconds?
Can we please go back to having it take this long? please?
386BSD was even better, and I have a machine that boots it in less
than 15 seconds from power-on...
A Sun 3-50 with a 15.7MHz 68020 and 4MB running diskless was about the
same booting. And when you opened mailtool, you were reading the latest
in less than a second. In exchange for having a graphic that can resize
itself to be readable, supposedly, from a 4 line LED screen to a wall
TV, you have mail user agents that will let you read mail in a couple of
seconds, but only after 30 seconds of filling 100MB of memory with
cached pages.
Hmm. Progress!
