This may have something to do with certain code/data being cached.. I'm not sure what since a console program doesn't use many DLL's.. It must cache the exe code segment or data segment. For example a program that uses many DLL's will load faster if it is opened the second time. As for programs that don't use DLL's, I guess the program is somehow cached for later use. This is one reason CGI programs are very fast.. because the same CGI program is being called over and over and over again.
