I have a P90 and I can attest to the quickness that Executor starts up.  I 
assume this is running under Linux.  I have a Micron P90 with 16 meg RAM, 
SCSI disk and CDROM, and a handful of xterms.  Now, I do see a slight delay
when I am compiling, but that is excusable. This is for 1.99d.  I am currently
using 1.99f and it is still fast when it is running.  I have some problems
with segmentation faults, and just today found the different switches that
might solve those problems.
