Package: readahead-fedora Version: 2:1.5.6-4 Severity: normal Dear Debian folks,
looking at `/etc/default/readahead-fedora` there is the following
option.
# enable to run readahead in the background instead of blocking
# useful for SSDs
#RUN_IN_BACKGROUND="yes"
What are the advantages and disadvantages? Why is it only useful on
SSDs? Are there some indicators on some log output when I might need to
enable that option?
Could the comment be extended or the option documented in
`README.Debian`? That would be awesome!
Thanks,
Paul
