A thread to show boot times running live.

F4 choose bootchart option and then you should see the bootchart image in home.

Post the details. To see better, right click on bootchart image in the thread -> view image ->and use the magnifier

I'll start the ball rolling.

antiX-16-386-full
live cd to boot from
frugal on an external usb drive
running full persistence

hello anticapitalista
this antiX-16 64 full ; second start on this device, startup number two.
64live on a hp16G usb, thinking that the device will be a factor in speeds, wondered if the desktop setting would be a factor, the report shows that space-fluxbox is selected on boot screen. only defaults used so far/previously on this live device no settings changed before/previously. wicd not automatic. This startup set f4bootchart and the desktop=space-fluxbox. Is this one report per live media, one report per machine, one report per upgrade (when persistence)?. like this?

hello anticapitalista
same device hp16Gusbflash live antiX16-64-full on machine hpdv6-1050us

hello anticapitalista
using same machine acerdesktop; change to device 16-64full live Sandiskcruzer-32G reduces four seconds to time: 29(s) loading +bootchart +space-fluxbox; then same machine and device loading +bootchart +default-desktop reduces one second to time:28(s).

Thanks for all the feedback ile. I hope other will post so we can see what antiX live booting is like (speed-wise) on a variety of hardware and in variety of cases.

hello anticapitalista
exempting each machine dispensing torrents from promptly participating here. Heroes. hope some still busying with absorbing set-up
new antiX16.
"(speed-wise)" is what details in the huge chart? and.tgz] and How large is too large to upload? icewm is quick. how to subtract +bootchart from speed-wise.? Will not hold you to explain. We send it to have you read them is enough; handshake. Thank you.

By speed, I mean boot to desktop speed. For example, your last screenshot shows 26 seconds. But, if you look carefully, it does basically nothing for 8 seconds. (all the empty space shown at the beginning of bootchart.png).

hello anticapitalista. thanks for that.
