The Ubuntu folks report on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DashAsBinSh, that
bootup and also ./configure runs are *WAY* faster if "dash" is used
as /bin/sh instead of bash.
Did anyone try this out on Gentoo? Are the boot scripts from Gentoo
strictly POSIX compliant?
I tried "time configure" in gnuplot several times for each shell and
took the fastest time.
shell real user sys
bash 0m11.924s 0m6.848s 0m2.980s
dash 0m11.822s 0m6.888s 0m2.816s
static dash 0m11.977s 0m6.804s 0m3.064s
dash would be 0,9% faster, which is not statistically significant when
measuring like this.
