xorg takes more than two seconds before start

I was trying to speed up my boot process yesterday.
but, there is a problem that xorg starts slow.

it hangs before it starts.
what should I do?

I don't think you can improve that, 7 seconds for a complete bootup is already good enough.

7 Seconds!
Wow!
And I'm thrilled at 19 seconds!

Re: xorg takes more than two seconds before start

Are you starting a lot of stuff in .xinitrc?  I "sleep"ed everything there for a sec and my X startup feels faster.  I haven't backed this up with a bootchart or scientific proof yet.
