For faster bootup: * remove all those files from /etc/preload.d/ which you don't need. This saved me about 8 seconds. * remove the zen-* packages and those depending on it. Saved me 2 seconds. * disable NetworkManager and use "classic" network configuration. Saved about 1 second. For faster system operation: * remove *beagle* packages and those depending on it. It taxes your system much more than findutils-locate (which had thankfully been removed from the default installation a few releases ago). If you pay for internet by the hour and/or use dial-on-demand or if you have a fast name server: * disable nscd in the runlevel editor. nscd will query your name server for addresses you looked up once a few hours ago, triggering a new dialup session every few minutes. It will introduce delays in name resolution and occassionally prevent anybody from logging in for a few minutes.
