Hi Dominique, as Changbin mentioned, the current solution we have in Tizen to improve the perceived startup time is the "splash screen". If this doesn't satisfy your requirement, could you explain a bit more the details of the problem you need to solve and what kind of functionality you have in mind for the preload mechanism?

Jingfu is now working to enable it in Crosswalk, https://github.com/crosswalk-project/crosswalk/pull/2148 Thanks, Changbin From: Dominig ar Foll (Intel OTC) [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, July 02, 2014 7:48 AM To: Shao, Changbin; [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Dev] Preload request for AppFW Changbin, My proposition is aiming at the creation of complex UX which are composed from multiple applications (e;g. a Home shell and various specific Apps) in order to avoid an empty screen we need to be able to request a preload of the App from the Home shell and to start that App, and so give it the control of the screen) only once that we know it to be ready to display something on the spot and take control of the UX. Dominig ar Foll Senior Architect Intel Open Source Technology Centre Le 01/07/2014 07:43, Shao, Changbin a écrit : Hi Dominig, Is your proposal aiming to save launch time for complex application? Currently, when launch a new application, Crosswalk will create render process to load, parse, composite etc to render the app page. For launch time concern, we can implement a model, named Process Pool here, that will create and initialize render process in advance before real launch happens, thus the initialization cost of render process could be saved. However, IMHO it's difficult to preload the application in render process because this is application specific task, the render process won't be informed which application to load until the real launch happens. Meanwhile, AFAIK the most time cost job is page parsing and compositing, the page loading time cost is relative small than above two. We also need to take this into consideration when design.

Would that be something that we could accommodate between AUL and Crosswalk ? I would be interrested by your sugesssion.
