4.0b Beta 3: (Performance) Very slow boot: 45 seconds on a fast machine

After a cold boot on my machine, with nothing else running and no indexing going on, Logos takes 45 seconds to boot up into a simple layout with just ESV open.

Well, on my machine it is a couple of seconds slower than B2, but not as slow as you are seeing:

Cold boot, initial start: 21 seconds

2nd start: 15 seconds

MBP 2.8 Mhz, 4Gb Ram, Fusion 3.01, Win 7

My start up time is near double what it was for 4a (plus a wait time for parallel resources to load).

4a was 22 seconds.

4b is 22 seconds until I can see my layout, but then another 18 seconds until the little spinning wheel goes away and the program will respond to any commands.

Also, on my system it is almost another 25 seconds before all of my parallel resource icons are visible.

So 4a was 22 seconds to be able to use the program (and all of its features)

4b is 22 seconds to load, 18 seconds to "think", 25 seconds to load parallel resources tool - for a total of 65 seconds.

Has performance improved in Beta 9? 

And why can't they be created the correct size from the get-go? Why create them the default size and then resize them after?

You said you'd reported my previous thread about this (http://community.logos.com/forums/t/7608.aspx) to development, but it sounds like they haven't taken it into account yet. Are they open to being nudged about it, do you think?

Rosie I have repro'd the exact behavior with My Library window docked in a panel but on my computer it is almost unnoticeable it happens so quick. I looked up that case and it does have a link to your post and it has a link to this thread now too.

Thanks, George.  You must have a very fast computer indeed if it's barely noticeable. My Windows Experience Index is 5.6. My system specs include:
Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 2400 MHz.
Physical Memory : 8192 MB (4 x 2048 DDR2-SDRAM )
Video Card : NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT

And I'm still seeing a noticeable flashing of all these windows of different sizes, which takes about 10 seconds from the time the Logos app window is first visible to the time all the flashing stops, even with this simplest layout of just ESV open on startup.

I like your computer specs! Although I am running:

Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 @ 3200MHZ

Memory: 4 GB (2 x 2048 @ 973MHz ~ PC8500 DDR2)

GPU: Nvidia 8800GT

I don't remember my windows exp rating I will update that when I'm at home. I'm wondering how it does that on your computer even with a simple layout, does it do it with a blank layout?
