I think there's probably three things: 1. A lightweight spin for more extreme use cases 2. Looking at the big things like packagekitd and gnome-software that could perhaps be altered or slimmed down. (For example: perhaps a much more lightweight process for _just_ the search provider, and maybe even something that doesn't need to run all the time to provide that?) 3. Working to move more things to be activated only when needed, or only run when they make sense. Modem Manager, Speech Dispatcher.... I see I'm running bluetoothd on my desktop system which does not have bluetooth. And I don't sync my calendar to my desktop, so all of the infrastructure for doing that is just running for no reason. -- Matthew Miller <mat...@fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
