Launch time of embedded applications has been a concern for a very long time. It has become more important with mobile apps as startup slows down with feature additions.

For many mobile applications, launch times- test the users patience.While smartphones are becoming faster, developers find creative ways to regress startup time by adding features or unnecessary software engineering.

Optimizing for launch time is a little different than optimizing purely for code size or for performance. Some code size optimizations help startup and so does many redundancy elimination optimizations. This presentation discusses;
- program instrumentation techniques to get insights into application launch time
- measurement techniques to get insights into different parts of application startup.
- compiler optimizations that help application launch time.
Along with other methodologies to improve startup time like order file generation, removing static initializers etc.
