We’re completing work faster than new work appears, and it’s clear that we are on the downhill slope toward the alphas and general release.
It’s all down hill from here…
The issue and goal trackers aren’t linear, so I’d be nice to get a bit more on the timeframe on when to expect alphas (is it going to be byz and crim or just one?) or even betas - days, weeks, next month’s update, summer…?
And, once again, points for punctuality and predictability - systems (like linux or the world) depend on those!
If touchscreen is really fixed I would be so much happier. Will see over the coming days
Our goal is to send as much work upstream as we can, which benefits the wider community and also reduces our maintenance costs.
And hopefully also reduces the latency between upstream patch and released for PureOS for Librem 5.
Reading and writing the internal storage is faster, as well.
As someone for whom this is a hot button, I will be keen to rebenchmark once this change hits byzantium
, if I had a way of knowing when that occurs.
Hmmm. That can be either a good thing or a bad thing depending on exactly how the metaphor is used.
It won’t be soon as I just realized it breaks some power management states. It gives circa. 10% boost IIRC (but it’s actually fixing an old regression, so don’t get too excited )
Am I sensing a possibility for a selection switch, like “Optimize L5 for power efficiency” vs. “Balanced L5 performance” vs. “Optimize L5 for computing capability”, as I kinda remember there are other features that have similar effects …?
Clicking on the actual MR (linked from the blog post) and reviewing, probably not but @dos is far more qualified to answer.
