The problem with this approach is that this is affect the startup time of my application. I am looking for a solution that is not only safe, but also fast.
This could conceivably be run in parallel, though. If that eliminated the performance issue, it would remain that such a solution is a lot more complicated than what we have to do on other platforms.
