Re: Fwd: 7.0 slow multiuser boot

[Tetsuya Isaki <isaki%pastel-flower.jp@localhost>]

Hi,

x68k also becomes very slow.

I tried it although on emulator, XM6i (68030/25MHz, normal
speed mode).  It takes about 3 minutes from starting emulator
to reach login prompt with 6.0.  But 7.0_BETA took 15 minutes.

Both VM are not in exactly the same (makemandb is disabled
on both), but I feel that the difference is too large..
