if you want to measure the time until the GUI is fully available, you probably have to use a GUI plugin that quits Pd from the GUI side.
so i went ahead and created the following GUI-plugin named "quitter-plugin.tcl":
after idle {pdsend "pd quit"}
now Pd will quit once the GUI has become "idle" (right after startup). which gives me the following stats:
| version | time | |---------|---------------------| | 0.54-1 | 249.9 ms ± 61.8 ms | | 618b63 | 202.3 ms ± 119.3 ms |
so you can see, it is much slower than the naive "-send 'pd quit'" test.
Pd-0.55 is still much faster that 0.54-1, at least for me.
