Well LibreOffice has an option called systray Quickstarter in options > memory.
which barely uses memory (even on lower end systems) but loads LO very fast. something like that can be used for this app (if its frequently used I suppose). also I believe google chrome stays in memory and is why it launches so fast. as for this topic maybe is better to discuss the details in the suggested list. > Date: Sun, 27 May 2012 12:56:56 +0100 > From: shaneym...@gmail.com > To: supernova...@gmail.com > CC: unity-design@lists.launchpad.net > Subject: Re: [Unity-design] proposal for making ubuntu really faster > > It may speed up the launching of apps, which is a good thing but would > also slow down login would it not? > > I'm not sure it's worth a longer login in order to load apps faster > that might not even be launched during a particular session. > > Also, what affect would having these apps launched and using up RAM > have on lower end systems? > > On 27 May 2012 11:30, supernova <supernova...@gmail.com> wrote: > > 2012/5/27 Matt Richardson <m.richardson.1...@hotmail.co.uk>: > >> I like the idea but I don't think there is any need to leave the program > >> running. > >> The first time I run Nautilus, it takes about 8 seconds to load.
