O.K ... now i tried both, the way you recommend (PePr) and the way 
at the botton of your side "Adding new applications".

The first way, with PePr, worked perfectly. It reduce the starting 
time of opera from 15 sec to 4-5 sec, not to bad ;-)

Then i tried the other way and created a preload file 
for /etc/preload.d (see above).
So i removed the ~/.pepre Directory, installed the preload file,
and did a update_preload.

After a reboot i found myself back to 15sec loading, so no result at 
all.

At the End i removed the preload file from /etc/preload.d , and used 
your script as before. Now i´m back to 4 sec loading time.
