Description _ rkubacki 2007-05-25 15:00:39 UTC 
Fast laptop with slow harddisks (4500 or 5400rpms) can get better startup
results if module resources are compressed as it seems that the biggest
bottleneck is currently the amount of I/O operations executed during cold startup.

Actually more RFE than a defect
Comment 2 _ rkubacki 2007-05-25 19:32:16 UTC 
Trying on my Sony Vaio SZ4XN - Intel Core 2 Duo@2GHz, 2GB RAM, HDD w/ 5400 rpms
Linux Fiesty 7.04, JDK6.0FCS, dev build of NB from May 25, measuring startup
after resuming from hibernation with NB over Limewire sources. 

Compressed IDE build needs 114MB on my disk vs. 164MB when uncompressed. Startup
with uncompressed took 46s, compressed 43.4s. I need more measurements to verify
the difference.

Mostly performance related. Passing to Petr N.
Comment 4 Marian Mirilovic 2011-05-25 11:53:09 UTC 
too old, no plans to do so - closing
