Description Xin Wei Hu 2006-02-22 13:25:56 UTC

/sbin/conf.d/SuSEconfig.prelink calls "/usr/sbin/prelink -a" directly.
It'll take no effects on my system. (Verify that via "LD_DEBUG=statistics konqueror, for example")
While "/usr/sbin/prelink -amR" works.

My suggestion is to adopt the "-amR" option in SuSEconfig.prelink.
It does reduce the time to start up some big C++ applications.

i see no difference in the number of relocations between prelink -a and prelink -amR

(both show 17000 for konqueror).

prelink is outdated and not really used anymore.
