First line of article: Replacing a sort algorithm in the FreeBSD kernel has improved its boot speed by a factor of 100 or more This is obviously not true.

  It's a bit of clonky writing, but in proper English "its boot speed" relates to the algorithm and not the FreeBSD kernel

    Well, now you mention it I can see it ... Feels very unintuitive to me.

    Still doesn't really make sense, as the original algorithm is not 100x faster. The replacement is.
