Am I really that weird? Granted I'm using geanie's built-in project
support (More like managed sessions), but I see a worst case for my use
of about 45 seconds to load a series of files.

But the thing is, my current "session" of geany has been open now for
about 4 days. 4 minutes in that time frame is a drop in the ocean. How
often do you open + close geany for a 4 minute start up to be more
annoying than a continuous lag when typing?
