17 second boot, 26 second restart.

Put the X25 G2 in my 2.53 June09 MBP today, clean Leopard install (which took 14 minutes after install disc verification). Even after installing many applications I got a full restart (click to desktop) in 26 seconds and a full startup in 17 seconds. This is by far the best computer upgrade I have ever done and/or seen, HIGHLY recommended.

 

my CPU heavy Music applications are loading in 1/3 the time, some plugins are seriously 5x+ faster with loading all their small audio sample files, CPU usage is noticeably lower. Opening files is ridiculously fast, so no I am not just basing it on boot time. That is just the biggest laughing matter to me of all the improvements. I mean come on, 26 second full restart?
