launch a KDE app or two and keep them running somewhere. That brings the libs into memory. I think there is a program called ksession which is the base of KDE when you run all of it.I can't see any binary 'ksession' .. and running background programs .. well .. seems wastefull .. still .. if there was some clean way of doing it without the system slowing down at login .. say them loading in like 1 minute from loggin time?
Mozilla is slow to start. *ALL* of the UI is javascript and create at runtime. The counterbalance of configurability is more memory and slower start times. Even under Windows I notice that mozilla takes a moment.yes, quite a long moment ... it and Open office.
Once I have it loaded launching new windows happens nice and fast.I have had feelings of seeng slow typing effects .. life if I was in a ssh terminal over a slow netword, the letters appearing not always instantly as I typed them ...
BTW, another common setup issue is insufficient swap space. You should have twice your ram setup as a swap partition. 1gb of RAM? You should have a 2gb swap.everybody always told me this .. I never understood it ... why alwasy 'twice' .. why even if you had a lot of ram ... but yes, I think i've got 500mb swap .. how can I tell again?
PS:
weird thing ... when working on a console, Eterm, while in X, every once in a while messages like 'Mutex destroy failure: Device or resource busy' sometimes show up ... what could this mean?
