cache that holds 2x95MB? I doubt. And you failed to see sys time (that 5 seconds spent in decompressing rootfs contents)

Anyway, i value my available / space more than some secs during loading.

Does it matter which exactly "time" is executed?

Anyway, it seems it was a mistake to move Qt to rootfs in terms of both speed and free rootfs space, will wait some comments from szopin and whoever wants to comment on that and most probably will revert Qt location back to /opt

I know the intention of moving QT libs to rootfs was to improve performance, but once they're loaded into RAM surely it makes no difference. If there is already a QT app open, then the next should only need to load any additional libraries. For this reason I'd rather save space on rootfs.

Why is there a /usr/share/applications/hildon/kernel-cssu-uninstall.desktop which being pressed installs stock kernel producing unbootable device?

i might ask smth stupid, if so tell me. But how can i install kp-settings without also installing kp, flasher, modules. Wouldn't cssu kernel be enough for kp-settings?

dpkg --ignore-depends=kernel-power-settings kernel-settings.deb
I think something like that does the trick, check the name of stuff I have typed

Well, AFAIK it does not work like that. We can never get rid of the swap. And (again) AFAIK the first pages to evict when there is no enough RAM, are executable pages. But when that code page is needed again it is better if it is on the faster media, that way multitasking will be better/smoother. Also have in mind that executable pages NEVER go to swap, so we don't know (at least not easy) what part of the executable code is in RAM, and what part will be read next time it has to be executed. That is the rationale behind my attempt to move Qt to a faster (as I was thinking) storage.

Now it turns out this (rootfs is faster) is an urban legend. Not only that, but it consumes CPU time too, so most probably soon there will be an update which will move Qt back to /opt
