 Replying to [comment:3 arthuredelstein]:

 means.
 Well it would at least solve the issue you eloquently describe in
 paragraph 2 & 3, right?

 > Without looking at the code or testing further, my guess is a big part
 of the perceived slowness is due to real slowness, which is that we delay
 starting to build the browser window until after the launch process is
 finished.
 Right, that can be fixed too.

 (Note: For the alphas on Linux who have SelfRando the content processes
 are slow to load so it's very noticeable, especially on an Intel Atom.)
