What is the purpose of Quickstarter and how does it work? Can I configure OpenOffice.org on Windows to suppress Quickstart? How can I measure Quickstart's beneficial impact?

I ask these questions because when I use OOo on Windows to process documents on a USB stick drive I cannot safely remove the stick drive without first terminating Quickstarter. I see no value in retaining an open state for a document after it is closed by the user either by Close or Exit. I use both writer and calc. I mostly use them on Linux but on occasion I must use Windows.

I waited the other day for over five minutes for the ability to remove the memory stick before it dawned on me that Quickstarter might be holding things up. I was blaming the relatively slow computer and Windows 2000. Now I believe the bottleneck to have been Quickstarter.
