Hi Yasuaki,

Yasuaki Kudo <yasu@yasuaki.com> skribis:

> I just wanted to report (although this is probably already known) that I had to wait for a long time (probably more than a minute) staring at "Welcome to Grub!" screen upon reboot, after accumulating thousands of guix system generations.  I was experimenting with something and I suspected that was the cause - sure enough, after deleting them all with guix system delete-generations command, the delay disappeared.

Oh, good to know.  I never went as far as having thousands (thousands,
really?) of system generations, so I never noticed (I probably have 15
or so at most), and probably that’s the case for most people.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
