Author: Scott James Remnant (Canonical) Revision Date: 2009-11-09 18:38:51 UTC über-readahead is a replacement for sreadahead that should significantly improve boot performance on rotational hard drives, especially those that had regressed in performance from jaunty to karmic. It does this by pre-loading such things as ext2/3/4 inodes and opening files in as logical order as possible before loading all blocks in one pass across the disk. On SSD, this behaves much as sreadahead used to, replacing that package with slightly improved tracing code. This requires the kernel package also found in karmic-proposed. LP: #432089.
