Speed Junkies: Loc-OS takes title away from Porteus
Posted: Sat May 06, 2023 4:20 pm
Loc-OS crypt boot to LXDE Desktop in 9 seconds and to Shutdown 13 seconds total - not even rushed..! https://imgur.com/a/tZM9oOE with all the usual software loaded; Ffox-ESR, Gimp, AbiWord, Synaptic, pulse audio etc etc as shown in the full video https://imgur.com/5OcjGbj
As you can see for yourself with Loc-OS: Crypt Boot - LXDE - Shutdown completed in 13 seconds.....! Yet Slackware based Porteus claim fastest distributions on the face of the Earth. On a modern PC, it will boot into the 'lxde' desktop in less than 15 seconds! Guess Loc-OS doing it in 9 seconds must take away the title for fastest distro on Earth even on a decade old laptop.
Okay – I know poor old Porteus’s web page is probably 12 years out of date but…. http://www.porteus.org/
Anyone should now be able to grab this title AFAIK Loc-OS, or rather that Locos por Linux Uruguayan dude Nico, living in Brazil, makes no such claims.
So I will claim the title for now with my Loc-OS setup having removed just some excess baggage.
My AntiX-22 LXDE setup with even more excess baggage removed should be faster still when installed on same laptop…!
