Yeah, that thing you said.
I wonder how much of the speedup relies on putting it in the data segment (i.e. using linker/loader to essentially handle the unmarshal). What if you had a new marshal format that only needed a light 2nd pass in order to fix up the data loaded from disk?
Some experimentation would be in order. I can suggest that, based on conversation from Carl, that adding the stat calls back in costs you half the startup. So any mechanism where we're talking to the disk \_at all\_ simply isn't going to be as fast.
