boot accelerated here

[mylo]

Hi all,

after d-u'ing today I saw a much faster boot-up on my box here:

Code Select Expand

$  systemd-analyze blame
...7.415s NetworkManager-wait-online.service
...


Was always around 30 +/- before. Now autostarted browser comes up with loaded startpage.

Fine! Just for your info.

Code Select Expand

systemctl mask NetworkManager-wait-online.service will make it even faster.

Ah forgot about that, thanks devil

Great tip -- thanks @devil!

After masking:

Code Select Expand

don@hp-350g: $ systemd-analyze blame
         5.576s networking.service
         1.547s keyboard-setup.service
....

After masking here

Code Select Expand

1.735 s for NetworkManager.service
now down from the pole position in the list to place 4! No longer a medal!


EDIT:

Code Select Expand

systemd-analyze plot > boot.svg
firefox boot.svg

provides a nice hierarchic/graphical overview what is going on and how time consuming the steps are during boot up.
