Could I respectfully suggest:

(a) the startup delay (in seconds) is included as a setting in 
local.ini and would default to zero, except for NTPrime and Prime95 
when "run as service" is set, when the default would be 60 seconds;

(b) a command-line switch is provided which would cause the startup 
delay to be omitted, even if set in local.ini.
