being familiar w/kicker's code base and knowing what a spaghetti mess it is in 
certain places (it's been through so many generations of development...), i'm 
interested: what did you trim down? did you remove certain applets? icons? 
extensions? did you remove actual code? what was the start time before and 
after (the different of 4-5 seconds is impressive, but if it went from 6 to 1 
seconds it's much more impressive than if it went from 15 to 10 seconds.)
