(the machine was rebooted for every test)

first launch (after restarting rainbow):

                703     2181    (2181/703)%
-------------------------------------------
write           12.	8.5	-29
read            11.3    7.1	-37
pippy           10.     5.	-50
chat            8.5     4.	-53
browse          16.8    15.1	-10
record          15.9    16.     +1
calculate       11.75   8.4	-29

It seems there is some extra overhead for the first activity launched;
so timings in the past mail aren't fair to etoys, new timings are:
etoys           13.3    13.2	-1


First launch timings (after restarting rainbow) when the
launchbox isn't animated (activity's icon doesn't pulse):

                2181-NoAnim  (2181-NA/2181)%
-------------------------------------------
terminal        6.3		-14
write           6.5		-24
read            4.6		-35
pippy           4.2		-16
chat            3.1		-22
browse          10.1		-23
record          11.4    	-29
calculate       6.5		-23
etoys		12.9		-2
