Owner

Current Status

  • Targeted release: Fedora 13
  • Last updated: November 21, 2009

Detailed Description

Ubuntu 10.4 is supposed to have a 10 second start-up time. Chrome OS now has a 5 second start-up time. Fedora's start-up time is not as fast as either of those. Fedora should focus on faster start-up time because people want to use their computers as quickly as possible.

Benefit to Fedora

This would make users happy because people dislike waiting. Making users happy helps Fedora.

Scope

  • Various components in the start-up need to be executed faster and some even removed.

How to Test

Start-up your computer and time it. Record the time. Through the pre-release process of Fedora 13 record those start-up times to see if the goal is reached.

User Experience

This will enhance user experience through noticeable speed, that always make people happy.
