hi guys, |
5 |
|
6 |
i did a change to rc-scripts to force GNU grep/gawk to use C |
7 |
locale at startup, which is fine since config is ASCII. |
8 |
|
9 |
red hat 9 does this, and from the noticeable startup speed |
10 |
improvement i saw there, i guessed that the same would apply |
11 |
in Gentoo, since Gentoo uses the same versions of grep/gawk. |
12 |
|
13 |
and for me, at least, it felt noticeably faster on startup and |
14 |
reboot with the change. |
15 |
|
16 |
i've created an enhancement request: |
17 |
|
18 |
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19598 |
19 |
|
20 |
please check it out if you feel like testing this, it shouldn't |
21 |
break your system, all it does is prefix awk/grep invocations |
22 |
in a few /sbin and /etc/init.d scripts with LC_ALL=C. |
23 |
|
24 |
to test, just hack your baselayout ebuild to use the |
25 |
later version of rc-scripts that i have attached in the report, |
26 |
and remerge. |
27 |
|
28 |
i want to know if anyone else experiences a speedup... |
