pittihello everyone!09:28
pittiin 22.04 and kinetic it takes almost 20s to get from grub's "boot now" (Ctrl+X) to the first line of kernel output, even with enabling "debug"09:29
pittiwith Fedora that takes a mere 3s; any idea how to debug that? it feels like grub takes an awful amount of time to unpack the kernel or so?09:30
pittiindeed when I drop the "initrd" line, it boots almost immediately (of course with a kernel panic, as it can't find the root fs); but that points to awfully slow initrd unpacking09:37
pittieww -- initrd.img-5.15.0-41-generic is 102 MB! no wonder it takes so long09:52
tarzeaupitti: mine are only 35 MB, i use: /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/compress:COMPRESS=xz10:45
tarzeauoh wait 22.04 110 MB, 35 MB was 20.0410:45

rbasakIs anyone working on the Haskell transition? I've been digging into it, but some of the issues seem quite deep.13:59
seb128pitti, hey. could that also have to do with the compression in use? what kind of hardware are you seing those numbers on?14:03
pittiseb128: yes, could be -- even decompressing 100 MB shouldn't take 18 MB; I see it in qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm with the defaults (1 CPU, $whatever model) and 2 GiB RAM14:09
pittibut either way, I got it down to 18 MB and < 2s now, good enough14:10
seb128pitti, nice improvement :)14:16
pitti"even decompressing 100 MB shouldn't take 18 MB" -- d'oh, of course I meant "18 seconds" 🙈14:20
seb128:)14:24
seb128still weird indeed, on a modern hardware in a qemu even with 1 CPU I would expect decompression to not be that slow :/14:25
Odd_BlokeHey folks, not sure if these MPs are monitored so: I have a small fix to avoid reporting that NBD devices will get fsck'd: https://code.launchpad.net/~oddbloke/update-notifier/+git/update-notifier/+merge/42749714:27
dbungertRetest click please? retry-autopkgtest-regressions|grep package=livecd-rootfs14:53
Eickmeyer[m]vorlon: How would you like to proceed on digikam? I can upload my fix now, or you can upload a with a patch to port it to ffmpeg5, or I can do mine now and you can do yours later or not at all?15:36
bdmurraydbungert: I'll retry them and use it as an opportunity to try out --blocked-by-tests15:43
