<title>Description</title>
|

|

<para><filename>systemd-readahead-collect.service</filename>
|
||||
is a service that collects disk usage patterns at boot
|
||||
time. <filename>systemd-readahead-replay.service</filename>
|
||||
is a service that replays this access data collected
|
||||
at the subsequent boot. Since disks tend to be
|
||||
magnitudes slower than RAM this is intended to improve
|
||||
boot speeds by pre-loading early at boot all data on
|
||||
disk that is known to be read for the complete boot
|
||||
process.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para><filename>systemd-readahead-done.service</filename>
|
||||
is executed a short while after boot completed and signals
|
||||
<filename>systemd-readahead-collect.service</filename>
|
||||
to end data collection. On this signal this service
|
||||
will then sort the collected disk accesses and store
|
||||
information about them disk in
|
||||
<filename>/.readahead</filename>.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>Normally, both
|
||||
<filename>systemd-readahead-collect.service</filename>
|
||||
and
|
||||
<filename>systemd-readahead-replay.service</filename>
|
||||
are activated at boot so that access patterns from the
|
||||
preceeding boot are replayed and new data collected
|
||||
for the subsequent boot. However, on read-only media
|
||||
where the collected data cannot be stored it might
|
||||
be a good idea to disable
|
||||
<filename>systemd-readahead-collect.service</filename>.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>On rotating media, when replaying disk accesses
|
||||
at early boot
|
||||
<filename>systemd-readahead-replay.service</filename>
|
||||
will order read requests by their location on disk. On
|
||||
non-rotating media, they will be ordered by their
|
||||
original access timestamp. If the file system supports
|
||||
it
|
||||
<filename>systemd-readahead-collect.service</filename>
|
||||
will also defragment and rearrange files on disk to
|
||||
optimize subsequent boot times.</para>
