bootchart works fine for this. What I've done when I was looking at login speed recently is to run bootchartd start on the console before logging in, and then I have an autostart file to stop it once login is done: [Desktop Entry] Name=Stop bootchart Exec=gnome-terminal -e "sh -c 'sudo bootchartd stop; sleep 30'" Terminal=false Type=Application X-GNOME-Autostart-Phase=Applications You can probably do without the terminal as well... _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list gnome-shell-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
