With hot caches, isn't it. I'm also interested in startup time on a newly rebooted/suspended computer. OOo/Linux really made a bad _initial_ impression because of this.
The point is: If people are used to MS Office opening documents within instants, you cannot tell them that 4 seconds is really fast. And 1.1 opened within under a second if the quickstarter was active. All I want is that 2.0 can do this, too.
I've not before timed OO.o startup on my main workstation/server, so I just did this. The CPU is an Athlon XP+/2200, there's 1G RAM (PC 2700/333MHz), and it's running the 2.4.31 kernel (stock Slackware-10.2). OO.o-1.1.5 loaded in 7.7 seconds; OO.o-2.0 loaded in 5.8 seconds. Both seem sufficiently quick to me. Rich -- Dr. Richard B. Shepard, President | Author of "Quantifying Environmental Applied Ecosystem Services, Inc.
