The reason for asking this is I believe FreeNX after login uses startkde
command to startup kde from ground up.  By this method, it takes a lot of
cpu time and hard drive accessing as if its starting from the beginning
instead of halfway.  

Having KDE startup from boot time already, I am hoping that with a "special"
startkde command can maybe help decrease the startup time and put less
strain on the cpu.

Why is it best not having KDE on at all time?


Relevant info:
RHEL 3
KDE 3.1.3 (I would love to upgrade to latest 3.2+.x branch but can not at
the moment)
