As long as we aren't talking minutes and just seconds, I close my browser once every 24 hours typically.

I can deal with a 15 second startup time for a super-rich browsing and debugging environment.

Once loaded, new tabs/windows do not have the startup penalty.

That said, the worst plugins can probably modify themselves to lazy-load the bulk of their code once the browser is started in the background when idle is detected?
