Details

---Using the M8 build of Mozilla (both with and without Full Circle)--
---Tried on both a G3 Powerbook 266 (WallStreet) with MacOS 8.6 and a beige
PowerMac G3 233 (overclocked to 266) with MacOS8.6---


Apprunner takes a very long time to start up and it has no indication of
activity... in fact, I had thought it was frozen and had forced quit it (I was
even about to send in a bug report stating that it didn't work).

So, it would be nice if while apprunner is starting up it did something to
reassure the user that its not locked, such as simply displaying a spinning
clock.

Target Milestone: M9
This will get better as we do performance enhancements for M9 release.  This is
not a bug...just the way the product works right now.  Is getting better every
day.

Verified LATER.

(The performance has already improved substantially since M8, and will continue
to improve. There's also a splash screen so that you know it hasn't crashed. ;)
LATER is deprecated per bug 35839.
