I can't speak about squashfs. However, as Derek Tracy eluded to, you can do other things to improve performance such as running a different init system. I remembering trying init-ng a while back and it ran fine, but I didn't want to take the time to mess with it too much and reverted back to sysVinit. There is a wiki on different init systems [1]. You may also want to check the forums for discussions on bootchart. This is a boot time monitor that generates graphs of load times. I've never run it, but people seem to get a lot of success from it. Hopefully that's some useful place to start even if it's not related to squashfs.

lnxg33k Roman isn't looking to speed up his boot, he is looking to speed up application startup times after boot. I was eluding to the possibility to use Readahead to pre-load a ramdisk immediately after the OS boots. I didn't want to throw his e-mail off topic. -- --------------------------------- Derek Tracy [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------
