Methods and apparatus to increase boot performance

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising instructions which, when executed, cause one or more processors to at least:

• during a boot process:
• identify a boot task that is to be performed during the boot process;
• execute the boot task using a first processor component;
• collect data corresponding to the execution of the boot task on the first processor component;
• categorize the boot task based on the collected data;
• and
• generate an entry for a boot table based on the categorization, the boot table used to schedule the boot task on at least one of the first processor component or a second processor component different than the first processor component based on the categorization.

An apparatus to categorize boot tasks, the apparatus comprising:

• task identification circuitry to, during a boot process, identify a boot task that is to be performed during the boot process;
• task control circuitry to cause execution the boot task using a first processor component;
• categorization circuitry to:
• collect data corresponding to the execution of the boot task on the first processor component;
• and
• categorize the boot task based on the collected data;
• and
• table entry circuitry to generate an entry for a boot table based on the categorization, the boot table used to schedule the boot task on at least one of the first processor component or a second processor component different than the first processor component based on the categorization.
