Severity: wishlist
Owner: Julian Andres Klode <jak@jak-linux.org>

  Version         : 0.02

  Description     : Super Read Ahead

sReadahead is based on Fedora Readahead, but is modified to take 
advantage of the kernel's new list of blocks read.
.
It allows the user to specify a set of files to be read into the page 
cache to accelerate first time loading of programs, typically during the boot
sequence.

This is just a basic ITP. Real work starts later.
