<td>Per object ELF Prebinding support</td>
<td>In progress</td>
<td>&a.mdodd;</td>
<td>Prebinding reduces executable startup time by lowering the
expense of symbol lookup, binding and relocation. This is
accomplished by a prebinding data file or ELF segment that
contains intermediate lookup results allowing fast symbol binding
and relocation, provided that dependent objects remain unchanged
since the prebinding information was generated.</td>
<td>The benefits of prebinding are realized when running executables
that use a large (>10) number of shared libraries. C++
applications also benefit as they contain a large number of
relocations.</td>
