About the only thing you can do (and it might create some other glitches, depending on the amount of memory) is hack on a copy of the application with resedit. Go through the thing opening up the various types of resources and do a 'Get Info' on each resource. Then click on the 'preload' checkbox. Resources with 'preload' set will load in at the beginning of the execution, although there is no guarantee they won't be purged. -- Chuq Von Rospach <+> chuq@apple.com <+> [This is myself speaking] Oh, saith you that this should be some pithy saying, but frankly, I can't think of anything to say. -- William Shakespeare
