Name        : readahead
Product     : Fedora 10
Version     : 1.4.8
Release     : 1.fc10
URL         : https://fedorahosted.org/readahead/
Summary     : Read a preset list of files into memory
Description :
readahead reads the contents of a list of files into memory,
which causes them to be read from cache when they are actually
needed. Its goal is to speed up the boot process.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

On some systems a boot time regression was observed by using readahead. With
this version readahead uses a lower I/O priority and more directories have been
blacklisted. This should result in faster boot speed on all all systems with no
regression.
