Hashstyling &Prelinks

This document discusses techniques for improving the performance of Linux systems, including prelinking and hashstyling. Prelinking resolves library references ahead of time to reduce program startup times. Hashstyling involves compiling software with new binutils and glibc features enabled to further improve dynamic linking speeds. The document provides instructions for setting up prelinking and hashstyling on different distributions like Gentoo and describes some potential issues and workarounds.
