Well, I never tested a dumped image and in my case I don't care at all about the startup speed, because as I'm a massive user of suspend-to-disk (sometime suspend-to-ram, too), I don't reboot my laptop (and consequently my X) so often. Moreover, as I track the CVS version, I don't need to dump a new image every time there's a new commit ;-) [OK, StumpWM has not a lot of commits, but just to explain you my idea] As I already stated, IMHO we should provide both solutions, maybe triggered by a command-line option ? Faré, what do you think about it? Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca
