[kwlug disc.] any folks using tricks for better linux performance?

[Robert P. J. Day]

  i'm perusing some online docs related to speeding up (primarily
embedded) linux systems, and i'm curious how many people on this list
are using any of the following in a practical way to either increase
speed or save space:

1) running the kernel XIP (execute in place)
2) booting without sysfs
3) using "kexec" for reboots

or any other somewhat atypical techniques for better performance.
like i said, i'm just curious.
