Increase Booting Time
Well I have noticed that my booting time increase a lot lately. It takes at least the double time than initial did. Now it takes about 2min while at the beginning it was less than a minute.
Since it is the same hardware, do you have any idea what is causing this delay? How can I decrease the time without having to make a clear install? Vista on the same HD takes about 2 - 3 minutes. |

clear all caches with onyx makes a big difference on the time apps startup at. As for start up I dont know if it makes a difference Im guessing it will. I cant say for certain as i use my system as a utility more than anything so i dont use it for all kinds of progs if that makes sense

10.5.4 continues to boot in about 25-30 seconds on my 780G / Athlon64 X2 install. Vista Home Premium x64 (64-bit) boots in 30-35 seconds on the same machine (Vista is NOT on the same HD as my OSx86 install)... Running both 10.5.8 and 10.6.4 on my stinking AMD/ATi machine... |

im using
AMD Athlon X2 4200+ 2GB DDR Ram and i boot in 30secs, that seems to be the average. is it true that with a mac ram will make it perform better then CPU i.e. the more ram i have the faster it will go? Cheers |

There a some incredibly fast boot times being reported here. I sure hope the nforce driver gets an update soon as I still have to wait around 2 minutes from power on to desktop.

ok, it's the same with me and my sb600 and phenom... this iokitwait thing... anyone found what it's for? It takes more than a minute, while my Acer laptop boots in 15 seconds. I would really like to speed it up, since my sleep is not working.

Hi Seawane,
If your SB600 is on the following list, you can try this AppleATIATA to see if it works and speeds up the booting time. It works on my Acer Extensa 4420-5239 but it may conflict with AppleVIAATA.

Just booted in 23s (darwin prompt till dock is loaded)
I'll remove some more kexts and add efi strings to boot a little faster. edit: perhaps a new thread with some tips & tricks to speed up boot would be nice? Last edited by PingunZ; 10-04-2008 at 11:15 PM. |

I agree. All the kexts in the Extensions folder aren't really needed; I think a good explanation of them would help individual users make the best choices of whether or not they need to keep them. I've started cleaning up my systems but haven't really been able find a good point of reference to learn from.
