Reilly) Organization: SUNY/Buffalo Computer Science Lines: 27 Keywords: bootup spedup by four times Hi all, Well, Thanks alot or all the replys about disk fragmenta- tion, they have really helped alot.... I can now boot up my machine, in about 15 seconds. My old Boot sequence used to take about a minute and six seconds. I think the most speed was picked up by reordering my programs on the disk. I also picked up some speed by first loading "run" into "ram:" and then "ram:run"ing everything from then on in, thus not needing to re- load run everytime I ran a program into the background.... With my old boot up, I would have to wait until all the pro- grams were loaded before I could get to work, now, as soon as run starts them all running, I can get to work. Thanks alot...to everyone.... mike ========================================================================== Apathy ??? ahhhh who cares about that ....(besides of course me :-) ========================================================================== Mike Reilly University of Buffalo Computer Science csnet: ugmiker@buffalo.CSNET uucp: ..!{nike|watmath,alegra,decvax}!sunybcs!ugmiker BITNET: ugmiker@sunybcs.BITNET <-OR-> ACSCMPR@ubvmsc.BITNET
