It's not really an issue of speed. The launcher in current joyrides has a half-dozen serious behavioral bugs. I worked with Marco to create a patch for this, which cleans up all but one tiny behavioral glitch, and which after 3+ days of testing by myself and a few others has yielded no side effects. The patch (attached to #7669) fixes more than half of the bugs listed in #8090, and is a really big win in that regard; I think the patch should be seriously considered for 8.2.0, considering the extent of the brokenness of the current behavior.
