Thankyou for the super quick reponse,<div><br></div><div>I&#39;l keep track of proposed &quot;Investigate and improve the boot speed of Oneiric based images&quot;..  at the said link.</div><div><br></div><div>My boot time measurement markers are: </div>


<div>Timer start is at the plug-in (i.e. at the instant when overo-fire is powered) </div><div>Timer end is when all the icons on the desktop have appeared, and loading process is stopped. This is when the processor comes to a nearly idle state.</div>


<div>This comes to about 2 minutes approximately after a few tweaks. From the startup applications I removed </div><div>1) login sound</div><div>2) Personal file sharing</div><div>3) Print queue applet</div><div>4) Pulse Audio related items</div>


<div>5) User folder update</div><div>6) Visual Assistance</div><div>Prior to which the boot time was approx 2m:15s...</div><div><br></div><div>Also wondering whether i can remove the Zeigeist datahub, for I don&#39;t know what it is doing.</div>
