Anyway, compile e2block2file as this gcc e2block2file.c -lext2fs -o e2block2file and then call e2block2file gimp.log /dev/sda2 > gimp.trace
That file I would be interested in :)
What worries me mostly in your log are two things you can try: 1. disable beagle - it saved in the couple of seconds while you ran it almost half a MB 2. edit /etc/fstab and add noatime to the options for / and reboot
Done, but it saved only 2-3 seconds. 2-3 seconds out of 17?
Greetings, Stephan
No, out of 21.
I'm not sure, but it might already add to the puzzle why ubuntu is faster for you. They don't have beagle and they use relatime by default.
I used relatime as is in the ubuntu's fstab and times are almost comparable. For Gimp it saved 5-6 seconds and also another apps start up faster ;-) Finally. It seems that relatime could fix it.

Hi, have you been talking of speeding kmail ? Each time i receive my mails it's pretty long (i'm using a Pentium 4 3.4 HT, 1 Gb ram) -- Fabrice -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

KMail's slowness is being addressed by the Akonadi project by upstream KDE. Will -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

I did some highly unscientific measurements with default fstab options, then adding noatime and then realtime. Like this: /dev/disk/by-id/ata-FUJITSU_MHV2080BH_NW78T652BFEN-part2 / ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 1 /dev/disk/by-id/ata-FUJITSU_MHV2080BH_NW78T652BFEN-part2 / ext3 noatime,acl,user_xattr 1 1 /dev/disk/by-id/ata-FUJITSU_MHV2080BH_NW78T652BFEN-part2 / ext3 realtime,acl,user_xattr 1 1 For me (fresh user on 11.1/kde4.3beta) there's no real difference with any of these fstab options. Cold start FF (3.0.10): 8-9s Warm start FF: 1-2s Cold start Gimp (2.6.2): 12s Warm start Gimp: 5-6s On Mandriva 2009.0: Fstab looks like this: UUID=7c2d957c-d69d-11dd-b9ef-c5218aa42eda / ext3 noatime 1 1 Cold start FF (3.0.5): 4s Warm start FF: 1s Cold start Gimp (2.4.7): 9s Warm start Gimp: 3s What is the full fstab entry that you use to achieve those results with realtime? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
