HUGE starting time improvement for XPages applications in the Notes 8.5.3 client

I just tried the new XPagesPreload notes.ini variable in the Notes 8.5.3 client with our new xSearch application.

I added these variables to the notes.ini of my Notes 8.5.3 beta client:

XPagesPreload=1
XPagesPreloadDB=Office4!!intranet/yn_searchcenter2.nsf

After restarting the client, the time for the first time start of the application was reduced from about 20 seconds to 3-4 seconds. After this initial start, the application opens instantly (in about one second).
A great improvement!
