It seems to me that "backend running in bootstrap mode" would be the most consistent way to define that state in a backend process: $ git grep -i "bootstrap mode backend" | wc -l 0 $ git grep -i "bootstrap-mode" | wc -l 0 $ git grep -i "bootstrap mode" | wc -l 68 $ git grep -i "bootstrap process" | wc -l 9 "bootstrapper" sounds weird.
