GripNews<p>🌘 加速 FreeBSD 的暫停/恢復速度<br>➤ 從緩慢到迅速: FreeBSD 筆記型電腦的暫停/恢復效能調校實錄<br>✤ <a href="https://eugene-andrienko.com/it/2025/07/28/speed-up-suspend-resume-freebsd.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">eugene-andrienko.com/it/2025/0</span><span class="invisible">7/28/speed-up-suspend-resume-freebsd.html</span></a><br>本文探討如何解決 FreeBSD 在 Thinkpad X220 筆記型電腦上,於安裝 Libreboot 並運行 FreeBSD 14.2 後,出現的暫停 (suspend) 和恢復 (resume) 速度緩慢問題。作者透過分析 Libreboot 的除錯日誌和 FreeBSD 的 `dmesg` 記錄,排除了 Coreboot 的影響,並發現問題根源在於系統在恢復過程中,嘗試初始化一個不存在的電池,以及停用了部分 USB 裝置,導致延遲。最終透過移除不必要的電池相關驅動和停用特定 USB 裝置,大幅改善了恢復速度。<br>+ 寫得真詳細,感謝作者的實測分享,對於有類似問題的 FreeBSD 使用者很有幫助。<br>+ 很有啟發性,我之前也遇過類似問題,原來是因為電池初始化<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FreeBSD</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/%E6%95%88%E8%83%BD%E8%AA%BF%E6%A0%A1" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>效能調校</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/%E7%B3%BB%E7%B5%B1%E6%9C%80%E4%BD%B3%E5%8C%96" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>系統最佳化</span></a></p>
