-
- <para><filename>systemd-readahead-collect.service</filename>
- is a service that collects disk usage patterns at boot
- time. <filename>systemd-readahead-replay.service</filename>
- is a service that replays this access data collected
- at the subsequent boot. Since disks tend to be
- magnitudes slower than RAM, this is intended to improve
- boot speeds by pre-loading early at boot all data on
- disk that is known to be read for the complete boot
- process.</para>
-
- <para><filename>systemd-readahead-done.service</filename>
- is executed a short while after boot completed and signals
- <filename>systemd-readahead-collect.service</filename>
- to end data collection. On this signal, this service
- will then sort the collected disk accesses and store
- information about them in
- <filename>/.readahead</filename>.</para>
-
- <para>Normally, both
- <filename>systemd-readahead-collect.service</filename>
- and
- <filename>systemd-readahead-replay.service</filename>
- are activated at boot so that access patterns from the
- preceding boot are replayed and new data collected
- for the subsequent boot. However, on read-only media
- where the collected data cannot be stored, it might
- be a good idea to disable
- <filename>systemd-readahead-collect.service</filename>.</para>
-
- <para>On rotating media, when replaying disk accesses
- at early boot,
- <filename>systemd-readahead-replay.service</filename>
- will order read requests by their location on disk. On
- non-rotating media, they will be ordered by their
- original access timestamp. If the file system supports
- it,
- <filename>systemd-readahead-collect.service</filename>
- will also defragment and rearrange files on disk to
- optimize subsequent boot times.</para>
