[desktop-discuss] FireFox loads in less than 2 seconds

[Darren Kenny]

Hi Lars,

I think you've pointed out the main bottleneck (which we are well aware of)
which is the disk loading of all the component libraries.

We have done work to pre-load much of this - and with such a fast disk this
appears to work really well... :)

Now if only I could get my hands on a laptop with a 10,000 RPM disk!

Darren.
