A couple of other threads have mentioned ways to possibly shorten the startup time for Sage. This made me wonder: What is a good way to tell *what* is making Sage take so long to start up? Are certain sections of the library taking the majority of the time? Are there some profiling tools which could help those who want to think about this focus their efforts? If not, perhaps that should be the first step.
It also occurred to me that other software which takes a while to start up reduces the *perceived* startup time with a splash screen and progress bar. Maybe we could think about this once we've determined that Sage is starting up as quickly as it possibly can (not likely to happen soon :) -Niles -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
