Summary0006209: Start of MediaMonkey without start-up splash window is significantly faster
DescriptionI tried to review what causes the start-up slow down and I found significant issue. If you start MM without the start-up splash screen then it takes 3 seconds less to start up!

Can be reproduced this way:
1. Start -> Run -> Cmd

2. To the command line type
C:\Program Files\MediaMonkey\MediaMonkey.exe
=> it takes 6 seconds to start up.

3. To the command line type
C:\Program Files\MediaMonkey\MediaMonkey.exe /nosplash
=> it takes only 3 seconds to start up!

Just for confirmation, on my machine the Release version starts: ~2.1 Nosplash, ~2.8 Splash. Seems to really be too high difference.

I don't think it would be an API problem, I'd rather expect some very slow splash image manipulation. Petr, any idea?

Yes it looks like image manipulation issue (detection of the image edges for custom window region). I'll try to optimize that.

I am almost sure that it is not only image manipulation issue. The manipulation issue takes less than second (0.8 seconds) which is huge slowdown, but the overall diference is 3 seconds on my system! Not sure why Jiri gets different results, I guess it could be due to my integrated (low performance) graphic card. It looks like a side effect slows down MM start also when the splash screen is already shown.

Since it affects all users, I'm rather increasing priority, so that we don't forget to look into it soon.
