Knowing how much stuff Mozilla applications (like Firefox) load at
startup, I wonder as much as coolo if they preload it if it's _that_
snappy.

If I accounted correctly, it loads 90MB during startup under a KDE desktop.
That took over a minute on first start here. If you preload these into your
cache (emulating a previous firefox start), it just takes a couple of seconds.
