cross-posting to the SoaS list. it's true that Blueberry has a 10-second countdown at boot during which the machine doesn't seem to be doing anything (Strawberry started right up).
I will benchmark with my netbooks. Sean ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Art Hunkins <[email protected]> Date: Thu, Dec 17, 2009 at 11:27 PM Subject: [Sugar-devel] Strawberry vs. Blueberry To: [email protected] Has anyone else noticed how much slower Blueberry is than Strawberry? (FWIW, I found soas03-06 iso's comparable to Blueberry; no surprise here.) Using the same computer with similarly configured sticks and the same activity, here are rough comparisons: System boot: Strawberry - 32"; Blueberry - 66" Activity open: Strawberry - 1"; Blueberry - 1.5" CBButton click: Strawberry response - immediate; Blueberry - anywhere from 1.5 to 12 seconds Close activity: Strawberry - immediate; Blueberry - 2" Shut down system: Strawberry - 15"; Blueberry - 28" This performance is seen with a number of different USB sticks. Of course, the absolute numbers of seconds depend on the computer, though the *relative* times seen pretty consistent. If this is typical, I'm wondering if there is any way to improve Blueberry's performance?
