Something else just occurred to me that can maybe be put in the 'nice to have' bucket for future consideration: delayed opening. For non-critical applications like Gwibber, it would be nice if they could be set to load 10ish seconds after the rest of the desktop, just to make the core system feel that much snappier. Again, very nice work. Thanks, Evan
Absolutely! I've been thinking a lot about this lately. Things like Banshee is something I'm going to use at some point, and it'll usually be on a whim. Thanks to the great Unity, I'm able to open pretty much any song I want in five seconds. Except that I have to wait about two minutes for Banshee to start. This is reducing that experience dramatically.
For my use, it would be nice if it could be delayed for two minutes, then started in the background at a high nice, and then, when I ask for it, it's reniced to a normal level. The same goes for Ubuntu Software Center, which is _horrible_ to start. Other people may feel the same way about LibreOffice or other applications that requires lots of time to start. The main idea is to make the desktop load very quickly, then later, make heavy apps appear nearly instantaneously.
Lots of stuff to do here. Jo-Erlend Schinstad
