I don't have a sane before bootchart, but I do know that the IO wait chart was staying pretty busy all the way up to the end (about 65s). Also before this update, the desktop was loading after xsplash timed out, and it was rather "chunky" loading.
After ureadahead 0.90.3-1 and linux-image-2.6.31-15-generic 2.6.31-15.50, the desktop is completely loaded before xsplash hides. And xsplash is actually relatively smooth, I only noticed one place where the animation stuttered. Attached the after bootchart. ** Attachment added: "gordo-karmic-20091110-8.png" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35494402/gordo-karmic-20091110-8.png -- performs poorly on slow HDD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/432089 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
