Hi,

I've been using Pharo Launcher for quite a while and problem that I am
constantly encountering is that launching of it becomes slower and slower.

Up until now I've solved it by writing a bash script that downloads the
launcher fresh and reconfigures it. And then I've executed the script about
once a week.

But I am little bit fed-up by it… is this a common behavior? Or is it
constrained to my machine?

For example, if I execute the following (so I can time it)
time /opt/pharo-vm/cog/pharo --nodisplay --textenc UTF-8
/opt/pharo-launcher/PharoLauncher.image eval '1+1'

(also I have right now about ~27 images in the Launcher)

fresh download (yesterday): ~0.49s
today: 0.91s (almost double)

and in a week it will be be maybe 10 seconds.

I can just setup cronjob that resets pharo launcher every day, but a
systemic solution would be better.

Thanks,
Peter
