Re: [SLE] Has The performance been forgotten?
Regarding the origial posting where xp boots in 22 seconds and suse slower, I became curious. My machine is a laptop with a mobile pentium 1.4 Ghz, 256 MB ram, don't think the other specs are that relevant. I have SuSe 9.1 and WinXP dual boot with Grub. From the boot menu (with a stopwatch) here are my results: Win XP boot - 2 min 11 seconds (when I can first start to run a program). Has lots of programs loaded but nothing on the quick launch bar. Suse 9.1 - 2 min 4 seconds (when I can first click on an icon to start). Most software installed except development stuff. Neither OS is fully optimized, and Suse I just installed last week, so I still have to tune it. Not slower than XP! Gus.
One thing to remember, SUSE is Linux, and Linux has services it starts. Open YAST2, run level editor, Run level properties, and from there you can shut things down. DO NOT SHUT THINGS DOWN UNTIL YOU ARE SURE. Ask someone for what. On Fri, 2004-10-01 at 22:37, rada and gus wrote:
