As you say though - convincing Ulrich it is a good idea is the main challenge here :-)
What's the status of that effort BTW? :)
Hard to say; the sole insightful prognostication available is: http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2005-10/msg00437.html
which doesn't inspire much hope of constructive engagement really.
Well, but that was a rather rough-shot reply, and your reply to that (if it was valid) was quite important, so for now it seems he doesn't have too much of a point here. Not to mention that application startup time still *is* a bottleneck on Linux, so there should be more effort to reduce that. I want to keep using my 450MHz box for some more decades ;)
BTW, did you do some oprofile runs of app startup?
