“That’s the power of Fatdog64!”

Actually it seems like even on an SSD GIMP takes a few seconds to load nowadays on Windows and yet Fatdog64 loads it within a second or two. Anyone else tried Fatdog64 or any Puppy Linux OS?

In my case Alacritty on Windows 10 takes like 30 seconds to open + 15 seconds waiting for Powershell, on Linux Mint Alacritty + Fish shell takes only 1-2 seconds to open

On Windows for me it takes a solid 5 seconds, on Linux it’s barely a second.
