Description-en: process launcher to speed up launching KDE applications
kdeinit is a process launcher somewhat similar to the
famous init used for booting UNIX.
.
It launches processes by forking and then loading a
dynamic library which should contain a 'kdemain(...)'
function.
.
Using kdeinit to launch KDE applications makes starting
a typical KDE applications 2.5 times faster (100ms
instead of 250ms on a P-III 500) It reduces memory
consumption by approx. 350Kb per application.
