Of course, if your system crashes, you have to do an fsck which takes |
| 13 |
approx. 10s for a filled portage-tree on a 5400rpm HDD and I understand |
| 14 |
the time it takes increases with the size of the partition, not (or not |
| 15 |
only) with the number of files on it. |

You should also consider putting them near the beginning of the disk. |

You can do this by booting a live-CD and use gparted to move your |
| 19 |
root-partition. |
