I wonder how would you throttle requests to the site so you don't get banned or something, if you have a lot of artists. This is a neat trick.

After sitting down for a full 20 minutes, my boot times went from 1min10s to 40s the sysv-rc-conf hint was truly golden, in addition to the 'profile' pointer of course. it turned out I had many daemons (notably loggers/traffic analyzers/monitor services etc) that I never (fully) removed after evaluating them for use at work. A bit sad to find that my usage pattern seems to induce the same kind of bloat in Ubuntu that comes pre-installed with my old windows setups. Hehe. I could always do a fresh install, I guess! Btw.

However, I added a second default X terminal in xorg.conf and siwtch terminals even when at home. (the wife is at Ctrl-Alt-F7, I'm on Ctrl-Alt-F8!) I also use FreeNX for remote sessions because it rocks in comparison with vnc. Big time I second LC on vnc-ing a separate connection.

Sorry to hear your 22 seconds seem to stick (mine was at 1:17 avg) but your 'checklist' runs down pretty nicely and just about sketchy enough for me to take the time to read it :) Thanks for sharing your skills in optimizing boots.

I think PHP-CGI is not as common on desktops as Python; also, I'm learning Python and this was an easy exercise - so I converted your code to Python, in response to a query on my home LUG (Goa, India), and posted it there (see http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/ilug-goa/message/18028 if interested) (the archives are publicly accessible, no need to sign up). Another member asked about copyright/license information, and though my post to the LUG attributed your blogpost as the source, it would be nice if you would clarify the license for your PHP-CGI code, which my Python conversion is very obviously derived from :-) so I can license the limited rights I have on the converted code. Would you please consider mentioning a FOSS license for your code, in an update to your blogpost? Thanks in advance, Ed. This is very nice, thanks – found it useful!

I found that all my albums except one we're not covered by RIAA. Ironically, it also happened to be the only album that I downloaded illegally. Rest of my music is purchased from eMusic.com.
