Google is making a change to Android’s early boot process that speeds up how quickly modules are loaded, making the Pixel 10 boot faster.

TL;DR

  • Google is working on a change to Android’s early boot process that improves how quickly kernel modules are loaded.
  • This change has resulted in a 30% reduction in loading time for the Pixel 10, according to a Google engineer.
  • As a result of this change, the Pixel 10 and other Android devices should boot up slightly faster, though it’s unclear how much of a difference it’ll make.

    I would also like to know! This seems like advice from the early days of Android when the software was way more buggy, everything seems very stable nowadays and I rarely find myself needing to reboot because something is in a bad state.
