Thank you for your quick help! I've tried what you had advised. You know if I just type simply sudo gopreload-prepare chromium I get: Chromium can not be run as root. Please start Chromium as a normal user. To run as root, you must specify an alternate --user-data-dir for storage of profile information. and I only have an OK button. I tried what you had said : sudo gopreload-prepare chromium --user-data-dir=/home/user/.config/chromium Well unfortunately nothing happened/opened, again... or maybe yes. Next time when I tried to start the chromium it said: Your preferences can not be read. Some features may be unavailable and changes to preferences won't be saved. And it has forgotten all my settings. I tried to remove the default folder under the .config folder, but the message still appeared. I had to remove the whole chromium folder. -Not a big deal, I don't have too much settings- I don't really know how gopreload works, but if it works for you with chromium can't you just send me your chromium file from the /usr/share/gopreload/enabled folder? Thanks a lot!

I don't know why chromium does not get "prepared" as a regular user, strace fails in that. you can use this trick to prepare chromium as root: gopreload-prepare chromium --user-data-dir

Hi! Do you happen to know why this doesn't work with Chromium? I installed because my Chromium is really slow at the first time, over 20 seconds. Every program works well with this except the Chromium. I gave my user permissions to the /usr/share/gopreload/enabled folder. Let's say gopreload-prepare jitsi, it opens the jitsi and when I hit enter it closes it, and calculates the megabytes. Next time the jitsi started faster. I typed gopreload-prepare chromium, nothing happened, nothing started, nothing opened, I wait 30 minutes or so and in the end I hit an enter. It says: Detection completed, parsing file list... Done with parsing, backtracing symbolic links... 126 on 126 done, will use 64MB to preload them /usr/share/gopreload/enabled/chromium.1000.openfiles-64MB.txt compiled. I guess 64mb is not too much, and it should be much bigger. I tried a reboot by the way, but Chromium is still very slow. [Before I gave permissions to my user, I tried gopreload-prepare chromium with root. -Hopefully- Chromium doesn't run with root.] Thanks in advance!
