    Summary: e4rat is a toolset to accelerate the boot process as well as application startups
    Description: 
    e4rat ("Ext4 - Reducing Access Times") is a toolset to accelerate the boot
    process as well as application startups. Through physical file realloction
    e4rat eliminates both seek times and rotational delays. This leads to a high
    disk transfer rate.
    
    Placing files on disk in a sequentially ordered way allows to efficiently
    read-ahead files in parallel to the program startup. The combination of
    sequentially reading and a high cache hit rate may reduce the boot time by a
    factor of three, as the example below shows.
    
    e4rat is based on the online defragmentation ioctl EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT from the
    Ext4 filesystem, which was introduced in Linux Kernel 2.6.31. Other filesystem
    types and/or earlier versions of extended filesystems are not supported.
