The "best" solution to the start up time issue is simple.
NEVER shut down emacs.
There's seldom a good reason to, especially if you are a programmer,
do your compile/edit/test cycle completely within emacs.
Other than that, emacs can run as a daemon process and you can use
emacsclient to connect to it very quickly.
