Optimize battery

  1. TL;DR
  2. Disable unused services
  3. Improve battery performance
  4. Further readings

TL;DR

# Summarize performance of the last boot.
sudo systemd-analyze

# Show last boot performance.
# Also shows the process tree.
sudo systemd-analyze critical-chain

# Check power stats.
sudo 'powertop'

Disable unused services

$ sudo systemd-analyze
Startup finished in 13.129s (firmware) + 5.413s (loader) + 1.746s (kernel) + 7.903s (userspace) = 28.192s
graphical.target reached after 1.239s in userspace

$ sudo systemd-analyze critical-chain
The time when unit became active or started is printed after the "@" character.
The time the unit took to start is printed after the "+" character.

Improve battery performance

# Enable automatic power management.
# See `tlpui` on GitHub for UI.
sudo systemctl enable --now 'tlp.service'
sudo vim '/etc/tlp.conf'

# Check power stats.
sudo 'powertop'
