Hi all, I don't know about earlier, but OOo 1.1.2 has a functionality named Quickstarter(at least in the Windows version I'm using), which loads some part of OOo in the memory at startup itself. The Quickstarter resides in the system tray & can be used to open any Office documents or to start new ones etc. This is a feature which may be turned off if needed.
Quickstarter, as the name shows, really reduces the time to open documents to almost nothing(i.e. as compared to the normal OOo startup). Since the machine I'm working on in Pune right now has a 1GB RAM, I can't say how much it slows up regular working. But at least on my own machine at Kharagpur(128MB), it works very fine; not much difference in the speed.
