I have dual boot windows 10 and Ubuntu (with kde-plasma) windows 10 is currently on my SSD and Ubuntu is on my HDD but Ubuntu is reallyyyy slow right now and i want to speed up it should i reinstall the Ubuntu on my SSD near to the windows 10? how can i do this or i can use ramdisk for some speedup i/o or sth. some forums says usr/local should be on SSD and home on HDD whats are them and my new programs that i installed on Ubuntu where are they going? idk.

thats my laptop specs:

  • 16gb ram (i have more than ram that i used gerenally so i want to use it for sth like ramdisk to speed up system)
  • 256gb nvme-ssd
  • 1tb hdd
  • i7-8750H

i am gonna use Ubuntu for coding java and js and daily use.

my current partition details:

  • SSD: windows efi and windows partition
  • HDD: storage + Ubuntu efi + Ubuntu partition + swap

i have 2 efi partitions so i select disks from bios instead of using grub menu.

i am planning to do this:

  • SSD: windows efi and windows partition + Ubuntu partition(is 50gb enough?)
  • HDD: storage + Ubuntu efi + swap + (maybe some Ubuntu partitions such as home tmp sth)

    What about ubuntu is slow? Slow to boot? Slow to open programs? Slow to do large computations? Slow to compile? It'd be worth defining what you mean by slow, as well as determining the root cause of such a slow down rather than just obliterating your current install. – j-money Feb 04 '19 at 10:29
  • For the record my ubuntu machine which is running on a 5 year old HDD boots in about 11s and I am able to jump to a command line nearly instantly, and the hardware is significantly worse than yours. – j-money Feb 04 '19 at 10:30
  • If you add a new install to an ext4 as / (root) on SSD you can make it 25GB. I use 25 or 30 GB for / but actual use in that is less than 10GB. But I have all the data in /home really in HDD and folders linked back to /home in /. https://askubuntu.com/questions/1013677/storing-data-on-second-hdd-mounting & https://askubuntu.com/questions/1058756/installing-all-applications-on-a-ssd-disk-and-putting-all-files-on-hdd-disk Check mounted partitions: df -h and folder sizes: cd / or cd /home sudo du -hc --max-depth=1 – oldfred Feb 04 '19 at 14:29
  • @j-money ubuntu boots about 1minutes (windows is about 15sec) and programs are opening slowly it looks like some lag or response time is so high i am clicking for the terminal and waiting 2-3 seconds?? i also use intelij-idea sometimes when i first time opened it respons slowly menus and even typing after a while it backs to the normal. by the way i have installed kde-plasma desktop does it matter? – Mert Düver Feb 05 '19 at 15:39
  • @oldfred so okey then i am gonna shrink 40gb from my ssd and install the root there and home to my hdd? is this just fine? – Mert Düver Feb 05 '19 at 15:40
  • output of systemd-analyze time and systemd-analyze blame? – j-money Feb 05 '19 at 15:50
  • it is too long to put here so i have putted it to answers but it dont see the endlines or enters ? i am new i this forum so :D – Mert Düver Feb 05 '19 at 15:57
  • Next time just edit your original post with the 'edit' button (I've done it for you this time) as for slow boot times, look at this https://askubuntu.com/questions/800479/ubuntu-16-04-slow-boot-apt-daily-service – j-money Feb 05 '19 at 16:07
  • Also you might have other errors you haven't noticed 11.853s systemd-journal-flush.service this seems weird to me (fwiw, that has an output of 235ms on my system)... output of systemctl list-unit-files --state=enabled? – j-money Feb 05 '19 at 16:09

  • @j-money everything is enabled – Mert Düver Feb 05 '19 at 16:45
  • Is it running fsck on every reboot on your sda3 partition? And I am not a fan of snaps. https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2411218 & https://askubuntu.com/questions/1039411/how-can-i-replace-snap-application-such-as-gnome-calculator-with-a-deb – oldfred Feb 05 '19 at 17:09
  • "everything is enabled" - @TelefonMakinesi That's your problem, if you have everything under the sun enabled, your computer may never boot... Now i ask again, output of systemctl list-unit-files --enabled – j-money Feb 05 '19 at 17:14
  • @j-money i've editted and added it. – Mert Düver Feb 05 '19 at 18:26
  • Whatever you've done to this system is causing slow boot times, not your hdd so reinstalling on an ssd you may see marginal performance. See my comment a few comments up – j-money Feb 05 '19 at 18:36
  • @j-money probably you are right. thanks a lot to everybody. i will reinstall the ubuntu. – Mert Düver Feb 09 '19 at 10:46
