Yeah. App startup time is always a struggle. With PrintUI the biggest wait is very often waiting for fonts to load. Depending on the template that can add up to a couple of MB of data or more… There's a few optimizations I still plan on doing there, and if we had a sizable persistent cache, that would help tons at least on subsequent app loads… Harbs
