Lotus Notes 8.5.2 Slow to Start
The esteemed Mr. Mooney posted about rebuilding his Macbook, and mentioned that Lotus Notes took 13.4 seconds to load. I just had to respond with this video.
Yes, I'm playing assholio, but it is all meant in fun.
Yes, the startup time for Lotus Notes is real. No, nothing was preloaded. Yes, it is version 8.5.2 Standard-the normal Gold release, no BP only "tuned release here. It is running on Windows 7 64bit. Nothing fake, no trickery or sleight of hand at all.
The reason for the speed is simply due to using high end equipment. Specifically: a Dell M6400 Precision Workstation (laptop) with an Intel QX9300 Quad Core processor, 16 Gig of RAM, and dual drives -1 7200RPM 320G Hitachi for data / backups / VM images / etc, and 1 120G OCZ SSD for O/S and heavily used (like Notes) applications.

Now, if you had a system like mine, with the Windows password integration enabled, you could shave another 2 seconds off your load time.
Slacker. :-P

SSD and 16GB Ram with a Quad Core processor. Most servers have less power sir!
