- zokier 5y agoQuick googling found this: http://himeshp.blogspot.com/2018/08/fast-boot-with-raspberry-pi.html http://himeshp.blogspot.com/2018/08/fast-boot-with-raspberry... Apparently rpi spends about as long on vc boot as it does for kernel+userland combined... Not great imho
- selfhoster11 5y agoThe article says it's about 1.5-2 seconds. For a firmware that's meant to just boot it's not great, but it's not as bad as I expected.
- codeflo 5y agoYou’re right, that wouldn’t be too bad. I remember it being closer to five seconds, which I found really disappointing, and there are at least some hints of people with a similar experiences: https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=278248 https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=278248 All of this might depend on peripherals, settings, SD card and so on, so maybe there’s more room for optimization than I had realized.
