Launching applications

Name: Anonymous 2005-12-05 14:56

Why is Lunix so fucking slow when launching applications? Launching Mozilla, Opera, and other multiplatform applications takes 2-3 times as long as it does on Windows 2000 in the same computer.

KDE is getting better performance with each release. It should no longer hog much more resources than Gnome. And like >>16 said, Windows doesn't load tons of stuff for each app.

>>16
That should be enough swap, and 512 is always enough if you want to add more. But anyways, forget about ever getting the Snappy thing on Lunix, there are too many layers of retardedness apps go through to ever get a great desktop performance. Even after trying 20 distros, after hours of tweaking, launching kwrite, gedit, or whatever small app will still take at least one second.

And thank you >>17 for proving once again that Anonymous has no idea what is going on.
