That's not what I'm doing. I'm saying if your distro, your hardware, or your setup takes significantly more time, examine why. The hardware part is tough because we're effectively locked into whatever is cheap on the market, everything else is 100% fixable. Fast booting is not really a hard problem, especially in embedded where you know & control the hardware.

- amelius 2y ago2.423 seconds is on the fast end of what I've seen, congratulations. For most systems I've seen it would be at least 5 seconds and when comparing that to loading a webpage, I would consider closing the tab.
