I thought I'd try and compare OpenOffice.org 1.1.X and 2.0 startup times, so with a rough and ready harness of date +%S:%N && swriter with a gettimeofday in metacity's "meta_window_new_with_attrs" to measure time from launch to the appearance of the splashscreen and then the arrival of toplevel writer frame. Run four times in a row, throw away 1st results, average the remainder. Tests run on my rawhide dell latitude d800 laptop.
