Sean, <div> </div><div>Any data from your netbook collection? Bernie and I saw video driver issues at GPA so there maybe variation between computers based on how well video is working. <div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Dec 18, 2009 at 3:57 AM, Sean DALY <<a href="http://sdaly.be">sdaly.be</a>@<a href="http://gmail.com">gmail.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">cross-posting to the SoaS list. it's true that Blueberry has a 10-second countdown at boot during which the machine doesn't seem to be doing anything (Strawberry started right up). I will benchmark with my netbooks.

(FWIW, I found soas03-06 iso's comparable to Blueberry; no surprise here.) Using the same computer with similarly configured sticks and the same activity, here are rough comparisons: System boot: Strawberry - 32"; Blueberry - 66" Activity open: Strawberry - 1"; Blueberry - 1.5" CBButton click: Strawberry response - immediate; Blueberry - anywhere from 1.5 to 12 seconds Close activity: Strawberry - immediate; Blueberry - 2" Shut down system: Strawberry - 15"; Blueberry - 28" This performance is seen with a number of different USB sticks. Of course, the absolute numbers of seconds depend on the computer, though the *relative* times seen pretty consistent. If this is typical, I'm wondering if there is any way to improve Blueberry's performance?
