By the way, I asked FreeSBIE (FreeBSD-based livecd system) developers
to measure application startup times with and without geom_uzip.
They are quite impressive (times are in minute and seconds):

--------+----------+--------+
        | w/o uzip | w/uzip |
Boot    |     1:26 |   1:04 |
X       |       41 |      9 |
XFce    |     1:17 |     18 |
xterm   |       13 |      2 |
FireFox |     3:02 |     24 |
