http://initng.thinktux.net/index.php/Boot_charts_Official First check, than argue. Of course it can be different for a server but the ratio will probably remain simillar. The simplest reason I can think of (there are other too) is that there are deamons whose startup is CPU bound (Apache? Samba?) and I/O bound (most of them probably... I know about CUPS which starts without any disc activity and probably also no CPU usage I guess it just waits for printers enumeration). -- Regards, Jakub Piotr Cłapa _______________________________________________ pld-devel-en mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-devel-en
