Hi....
I have KDE-2.2 (+QT-2.3.1) from srpms ...but with objprelink :>
and see this:
normal ( without objprelink)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
[orpheus@orpheus kde-objprelink]$ LD_DEBUG=statistics konqueror
03675:
03675: runtime linker statistics:
03675: total startup time in dynamic loader: 1199350710 clock cycles
03675: time needed for relocation: 1196944525 clock cycles (99.7)
03675: number of relocations: 54587
03675: time needed to load objects: 2171304 clock cycles (.1)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
qt - objprelink , kdelibs - normal :
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[orpheus@orpheus orpheus]$ LD_DEBUG=statistics konqueror
25777:
25777: runtime linker statistics:
25777: total startup time in dynamic loader: 314795822 clock cycles
25777: time needed for relocation: 312378297 clock cycles (99.2)
25777: number of relocations: 42229
25777: time needed to load objects: 2187186 clock cycles (.6)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
qt + kdelibs - objprelink :
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[orpheus@orpheus orpheus]$ LD_DEBUG=statistics konqueror
08426:
08426: runtime linker statistics:
08426: total startup time in dynamic loader: 313335798 clock cycles
08426: time needed for relocation: 293678472 clock cycles (93.7)
08426: number of relocations: 23776
08426: time needed to load objects: 19419042 clock cycles (6.1)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
and system ist stable...and much more faster :
normal: total startup time in dynamic loader: 1199350710 clock cycles
VS
objprelink: total startup time in dynamic loader: 313335798 clock cycles
PS: sorry for my bad english :>
