BTW the kernel now outputs lots of messages to the screen during boot. It's using a pretty large font for that (looks like 8x12), and has to do quite a lot of scrolling. Can this have a negative effect on bootup time? It looks like scrolling speed is limited by the speed of the linux console output and not by whatever kernel component is emitting the messages.
yes. after disable the log the boot time reduce about 0.5 second: committed at: http://qi-hw.com/p/openwrt-packages/d95cfe1 BEFORE: [ 2.590000] Freeing unused kernel memory: 156k freed AFTER: [ 2.040000] Freeing unused kernel memory: 156k freed _______________________________________________ Qi Hardware Discussion List Mail to list (members only): [email protected] Subscribe or Unsubscribe: http://lists.en.qi-hardware.com/mailman/listinfo/discussion
