[Splashy-devel] Slow from initramfs

[Tim Dijkstra]

Hi,

Have anybody tested splashy starting from initramfs?
Does anybody see the same slow behavior I see?

The version in trunk seems to survive pivot_root etc pervectly, but for
some reason it makes booting really slow. 
For the sake of comparison I removed the socket code and the
key event thread (also no splashy-init). Starting in rcS.d (after
initramfs) gives me:

0 print /etc/rcS.d/S03udev
2 print /etc/rcS.d/S07hdparm
17 print /etc/rcS.d/S43portmap
23 print /etc/rcS.d/S70x11-common
23 print /etc/rcS.d/S70x11-common
24 print /etc/rc2.d/S18portmap
24 print /etc/rc2.d/S20dbus
33 print /etc/rc2.d/S21nfs-common
34 print /etc/rc2.d/S89atd
34 print /etc/rc2.d/S89cron
36 print /etc/rc2.d/S99gdm

Starting on initramfs:

0 print /etc/rcS.d/S03udev
3 print /etc/rcS.d/S07hdparm
15 print /etc/rcS.d/S43portmap
21 print /etc/rcS.d/S70x11-common
21 print /etc/rcS.d/S70x11-common
40 print /etc/rc2.d/S18portmap
73 print /etc/rc2.d/S20dbus
122 print /etc/rc2.d/S21nfs-common
124 print /etc/rc2.d/S89atd
124 print /etc/rc2.d/S89cron
127 print /etc/rc2.d/S99gdm

So that's 90 sec longer! I also tried to launch it after udev started
in initramfs, but that didn't help either.
The only thing that is still left to blame is using the framebuffer
it self...

Ideas?
