Its not that much faster, it just shows the desktop earlier - before restoring session. Like Gnome does, btw. Windows is even smarter: they show the desktop before it is actually usable...

Are you the Lubos who did (some/all/most) of the startup improvements? If so then I guess you should know...

Seems faster to me, though I didn't get a stop watch out. Thanks btw :)

And speaking of which:

THANK YOU, Lubos. I've been keeping a remote eye on your work on startup speed and fontconfig improvement, and I think you deserve more praise and thanks than you get. :)

Actually I think a big portion of the fontconfig praise and thanks belongs to Dirk and Coolo :).

I hope you are joking. Windows behavior is a stupid lie. I prefer a splash screen suggesting you get a pillow, but when it is gone things work.

Windows is stupid for doing that--lots of people bang on the mouse waiting for it to become usable.
