[Sugar-devel] Performance: activities start up time

[Daniel Narvaez]

Sure. I opened a python console and called from gi.repository import
EvinceView in it. Then I looked at /proc/$console_pid/smaps. There was no
evince library in it. Then in the console I tried to use call
EvinceView.Page(), back to smaps the evince library was there.

Using strace as you did is also a fine way to do it though.
