Quick Start RCP [message #912350]

Has anyone done any work around improving the RCP startup time?

I have created a bear minimum RCP using the 'RCP application with a view' template but when packaged up as a exe it takes 3.5 to 4 seconds to startup (core 2 duo 2.4ghz + 2gb ram). I was wondering if this could be improved?

I have wondered if lazy loading could help but not sure where to start?

.... or if the startup time is a key validated quality attribute should I be picking another delivery platform?

Thanks.

I was searching for info about this topic and came across this page: http: //ww w.eclipsecon.org/2011/sessions/?page=sessions&id=2305 (remove the spaces)

A month ago I wrote a mail to Denis Denisenko but got no answer. I think I'll write a new email to the other presenter.

If I get an answer, I'll share it here.

Best regards

Try to cut down number of used plug-ins in your run configuration.

The following are 24 minimal required bundles (3.7 /Indigo/-based) in my
case:
