Not really, however even with the recent rtld patches.. KDE apps aren't very quick on their feet.

Of course reducing the number of shlibs that KDE requires would go a long way towards creating faster startup as well.. - alex To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
