Faster booting with Upstart

,----[ Quote ]
| A good portion of the boot time on current 
| Linux systems is spent on system initialisation 
| and starting dozens of daemons sequentially. 
| The Ubuntu 9.10 development team have started 
| to parallelise and accelerate the boot process 
| through the large scale use of Upstart.

Building A Benchmarking Test Farm With Phoromatic

,----[ Quote ]
| Phoromatic was originally mentioned during the 
| Phoronix Test Suite 2.0 development cycle, but 
| the web-based service has not gone public in 
| beta until this morning. The Phoromatic module 
| in the Phoronix Test Suite 2.2 client provides 
| a few updates to the Phoromatic support and 
| interested users are encouraged to use the 
| just-released Bardu Beta 2 or newer. This was 
| pushed back from 2.0 Sandtorg due to strapped 
| development resources, waiting for a few 
| internal pts-core API changes in 2.2 Bardu, and 
| then awaiting feedback from various PTS-using 
| companies.
