When used at the right time 311 (in particular when a CPU boundprocess is running) it can 312 significantly speed up system startup. 313 314 As readahead(2) blocks until each file has been read, it is best to 315 run this applet as a background job. 316 317config RUNLEVEL 318 bool "runlevel" 319 default n 320 help 321 find the current and previous system runlevel. 322 323 This applet uses utmp but does not rely on busybox supporing 324 utmp on purpose.
