Slow Write Speed on Live Images
===============================

In one of our previous releases (denzil), users noticed that booting off
of a live image and writing to disk was noticeably slower. This included
the boot itself, especially the first one, since first boots tend to do
a significant amount of writing due to certain post-install scripts.

The problem (and solution) was discovered by using the Yocto tracing
tools, in this case 'perf stat', 'perf script', 'perf record' and 'perf
report'.
