[Caolán McNamara]

Taras Glek's slidedeck about firefox, etc. startup performance
http://people.mozilla.com/~tglek/lpc2011/

Some goodies. On the relatively low-hanging fruit side of things...

a) https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606137
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=46770
gcc 4.7.0 apparently has some goodness whose side-effect should make
startup faster without having to do anything

b) fadvise(WILLNEED) before dlopen ?
