This updated version of Redsn0w reduces jailbreaking time from 210 seconds to 80 seconds. However, when you run Cydia for the first time after you jailbreak your device, it will take a little longer to stash the applications.

After some feedback on reddit, we’ve decided to make the initial jailbreak as quick as possible by no longer “stashing” the applications by default during the redsn0w run. This reduces the time to actually perform the jailbreak from 210 seconds to 80 seconds (60 percent!). However, you make up for much of that the first time you launch Cydia, which will then want to stash the applications. You can choose whether you want redsn0w or Cydia to stash in the Preferences pane.

Redsn0w 0.9.9b7 is available to download for both Windows and Mac. Download links are provided below:
