I also used prelink to accelerate the apps.
Also, stripping all the binaries helps.
This is the first I've heard of 'prelink' I'm about to install it.
I'm searching for the doc's now but are there any tips you noticed?
What makes you think that removing a part of the file that isn't loaded (the symbol table) is actually going to make a program run faster?
Do you have any measurements or does it just "feel" faster?
