I'm getting crazy of your reply's..
And it's right that preload is making things slower. it needs to load
them in the memory sometime. that time is in the boot progress. if
your preload "database" is big than you will notice the slowdown in
the boot but you will also notice the speedup in the applications
(like firefox).

I personally rather have a slow boot and for the rest fast responding
applications than just a "slow" and slow applications.

Btw i'm currently busy with benching and that really is irritating...
nearly all the apps that i want to bench can't be benched with "time
appname"!

O well.. expect some results soon
