I can understand people decrying results of .05 seconds apart or so, but 3 second start ups? That would be infuriating. That kind of UX would take me back quite a few decades...

Garwk. I've helped write whole operating systems that boot in less time. [Atari ST. Check. Newton OS. Check. Other stuff I can't talk about: tens of milliseconds, mostly waiting for external crap like USB to initialize and settle down.]
