Some time ago, I remember seeing a discussion about a way to speed up the launch of OpenOffice.org modules. Now I can't find any reference to it. I can find references to 'quick launch' but that refers to putting icons on the quicklaunch panel. Does anyone else remember such a discussion or am I just going nuts in my old age? Thanks for any assistance.
IIRC, there's a separate RPM that has to be installed for the Quickstarter. On my system, the first time starting OpenOffice after a reboot takes less than 3 seconds, after that, less than 2s.
And as a matter of principle, I never install the Quickstarter.
Although I am using 2 GB of RAM, I definitely see no benefit in sacrifising memory for something that I might _poosibly_ need to start during the day.
And when I start OOorg it admittedly takes a little longer, but the time it takes then, is much less than the time I need to read this mail.
You're not sacrificing memory. Should you fill that 2 GB, the least recently used stuff will be sent to swap.
