From a theoretical standpoint, not really. It's not loading the
binary from disk that makes loading OpenOffice.org slow. It's the
actual steps it has to take to initalize itself that take so long.
Cat'ing the binary to /dev/null does not cause this to happen,
therefore, I wouldn't think that it would be of much use.
