Why should the program be opened while nobody's using it? The first
time it is launched it will load some stuff to the memory, when it's
launched again some of the memory will remain in the cache, so it will
load faster.

serious lack of performance = ~1s opening a program?
I do agree that 'instantaneous' is better than ~1s, but that's not serious.
