'Tis a sad day when people would complain about an app
that takes maybe a few seconds to load.
Mathematica is a true memory hog and takes its own
sweet time loading. The most time-consuming part of
firing up J is clicking "Exit to J Session". (Yes,
I could check the "Don't show this again", but I still
count my self a newbie.)
J is a thinking man's (or woman's) app, and the thinking
is for sure the part that takes me the longest to load.
