Bug Description
I am running a fully updated Edgy (RC). I have always had a Reiser partition for my / partition and my /home partition. I noticed, when doing a bootchart
that there was 5 seconds where there was no CPU or I/O at the same time when fsck.reiserfs was meant to be running.
I just reinstalled and changed my root partition to ext3 instead of Reiser and one of the 5 second stalls is gone. My new bootchart can be found here:
As you can see, there is now only one 5 second stall (I assume for my Home partition, which is still Reiserfs) instead of two. Consequently, my machine boots 5 seconds faster.
I like Reiserfs, but if it is going to cost me an extra 10 seconds each boot (25%!) then I will change to ext3.

Note that this didn't seem to occur on Dapper. Here is a link to the bootchart for my Dapper install: /wiki.ubuntu. com/BootChartin g?action= AttachFile& do=get& target= dell-inspiron- 510m-20060715. png
