Performance

[Brendan Coupe]

I have 15 years of data, less than Thomas but a fair amount. I tested it
both ways and found very little difference. I only show Assets and
Liabilities on the home page. When I added everything else, the opening
took about 8 seconds instead of 5 seconds. I am running on a fast SSD with
lots of RAM so it's probably about as fast as it could be.

I would not be happy if it opened on the last tab. I always want to start
with the summary on the home tab.
