Summary: Explain initial load time

Initial Comment:
The first time you view a Mercurial repository in Windows Explorer, there are a 
few seconds delay before it shows up. I guess this is to load TortoiseHG into 
memory. 

Explain in the manual that this is a Good Thing because your boot time is not 
increased by a boot-loader.

The delay is a result of Mercurial checking the repository for file
status, in order to reflect the status through the overlay icons. Typically
the delay is more noticeable the first time the repo folder is viewed.
Subsequently, Mercurial cache the file status, and the delay should be
significantly reduced.

It does not affect the boot time.

P/S: the Mercurial folks are working on improving the performance of file
status check, which we would incorporate in the future release of
TortoiseHg once is available.
