Bugzilla – Bug 157930
boot time I/O thrash:
Last modified: 2006-03-15 15:10:30 UTC
Rumour has it (and I guess you are perhaps tracking this elsewhere) that zmd is responsible for a metric ton of I/O on up-load. http://ktown.kde.org/~coolo/boochart-10.png Of course, perhaps it's something else ? - either way 'mono' then 'query-system' seem to substantially chew I/O on boot & hence slow everything else down.
Hmm we haven't seen this yet. I'll check with testing to see whether they can analyze and duplicate.
I think this is probably related to #157474. I'll test this after that bug is fixed.
Yeah, we really do use a metric crapload of disk I/O when we startup and load system packages, etc. Sqlite is not very nice to the disk, it seems. This is actually a duplicate of 157333. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 157333 ***
