Startup Doubler's software acceleration compensates for less-than-
optimal disk performance to make extensions, control panels, the
Finder and startup apps load faster.
\- Zap through startup icons!
\- Save time each time you startup your Mac!
\- Startup your PowerBook/iBook faster at airports (and everywhere
else, too!)
Waiting too long for your Mac to start up, day after day, only adds up
to a lot of wasted time. Startup Doubler can help: expect pre-G4 Macs
to startup 10% to 50% faster, depending on disk speed. Fast disks in
the latest high-end Macs, however, can't be accelerated much, so if
you have one of those you probably won't notice much difference.
Before you install, please make sure to check your disk with Disk
First Aid or a similar utility. Minor disk errors that may have gone
unnoticed before are sometimes made apparent when Startup Doubler is
installed. Common such conditions and fixes for each are detailed on
the Frequently Asked Questions FAQ page.
New in version 2.7.3
01/17/03: v.2.7.3 fixes a freeze bug that would sometimes happen when
the *Startup Doubler Extension grew larger than 500K. This version is
also slightly faster than previous ones.
