Without kdeinit or prelink, the startup time of every kde app would be insane. That is, why a single app should not be so much affected like the overall kde startup time. After the start, everything is 'prelinked' (not really, but kdeinit will be running), and the times of the apps are depend on how fast they 'link' against kdeinit.... -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
