Depends on which "cache" you mean... but the general answer is "not really" because I have to load the list-views with all these items and can't do this instantly anyway. The XML data is required on-demand (mostly) later in the ga

Is there some reason you don't just store the cache in a binary format? You could start up almost instantly then.

It's getting better ... software-info DB loading has been slightly improved as well in r5018. The difference is just about 100ms here in case of MAME, and 300ms in case of MESS.

Loading of cached XML data has been optimized a bit as well in SVN r5017. For me this saves between 15% and 20% of time spent on this job. Overall I'm down to "less than 13 seconds" start-up time now with MAME SVN r23765 and all current da

True, but right now we have no idea what it uses. That's why I'd like to see a picture of the internals.

OK, that's in SVN r5014 now... plus the additional corner case when an individual set's ROM state is checked and doesn't change, then running the filter is also useless. Anyway, the above mentioned change will speed up many cases because ROM state fi
