In this case making the best usage of the CPU memory wont come into picture,
reason being, ive developed a method of booting the live cd from RAM directly.
So now the OS has no dependency on the CD at all.
But this is not good enough for me
The technique ive followed is to copy the compressed FS to the RAM and use it as the default image to boot from!
But the catch here is that,when the copy is being done,there is nothing else that is happening , all the CPU time is just dedicated to this process...
And its this cp that is taking a large chunk of my boot time.
So i wanted to know if there is a way to boost the read ahead ,so that we can increase the prefetch from the current 4 pages?
