Vipul,
Unfortunately there does not seem to be any clear difference between
starting times before or after the change. Looking at the strace logs
the total times are before 1.71s and 0.76s, and after 0.61 and 0.65. The
only one that stands out of those is is strace-before-1.log and looking
at it

is ok for checking if there is a difference in startup times before and
after /etc/hosts modification. The startup time alone does not tell
anything useful even if there is a clear difference, so the strace log
should be attached from the slow startup case.

Does anyone know how to time how long it takes for an application to

program spikes down in CPU usage or similar.

Wow. Gnome-terminal and nautilus launch within a second now. They use to
take at least 2 seconds.
If I read the comments here 'correctly' this is not a bug, but a
workaround for bugs in _some_ applications. Nevertheless, it might be a
good idea to apply this patch by default, just for Feisty. As
Ralf,
Although it seems to increase startup speed of applications for a lot of
users, there is the possibility that this change is breaking things
elsewhere. For example, hostname -f now reports localhost instead of my

First of all, gnome apps are starting fine and fast on my two feisty

clearly. If for example gnome-terminal is one of the apps that start
