systemd-analyze

[Abarbarian]

If any of you penguinistas out there have a os that is using systemd here is a niffty tool. it tells you all about your boot sequence and which components are running and time taken. With a simple bit of tweaking you can have a lean fast boot up.

Here is mine,

60 GB SSD

[11:18][bloodaxe@longship ~]$ systemd-analyze
Startup finished in 5.128s (kernel) + 13.117s (userspace) = 18.246s

500 GB F3 HDD

[12:27][bloodaxe@longship ~]$ systemd-analyze
Startup finished in 7.296s (kernel) + 16.808s (userspace) = 24.105s

Second try with 500 GB F3

[12:43][bloodaxe@longship ~]$ systemd-analyze
Startup finished in 5.268s (kernel) + 12.859s (userspace) = 18.127s

An this rat running Arch must be a wizard.

Startup finished in 3.608s (kernel) + 4.851s (userspace) = 8.460s

Later that same evening, removed lvm-related stuff -
systemctl mask lvm2-activation-early.service
systemctl mask lvm2-activation.service Startup finished in 3.542s (kernel) + 3.724s (userspace) = 7.266s
Still a few more I can hide but, would I even notice?

Faster than a ray of sun.
