Linux memblock boot-time allocator gets massive speed boost
Original: Linux's Early Boot-Time Physical Memory Allocator Big Speed-Up: ~268s to ~50ms
A major optimization to the Linux kernel's memblock early-boot physical memory allocator is cutting initialization time from roughly 268 seconds down to around 50 milliseconds. The change, covered by Phoronix, dramatically improves boot performance on large-memory systems and is expected to land in an upcoming kernel release, drawing attention from kernel developers and system administrators.
Why now: A dramatic performance improvement in core Linux boot code is notable for developers and system administrators.
