Microsoft will be using a new pre-loading technique to "improve" 
application launch times. This looks like a relatively easy feature to 
duplicate. Is it worthwhile?


Seems exactly like our resident(8).

Windows has a technology like binary pre-fetching for quite some time; it 
exists in Windows XP.  This just looks like marketing stunt to me, 
evidently because the said feature was not publicised very well.
