You can significantly speed up the Notes 8 launch by changing the Productivity Tools preferences. The default is to launch the Productivy Tools (Open Office stuff)in the background when Notes 8 launches. When I turned that off, the Notes 8 client launched in approximately the same time as the Notes 7 client. I am running Windows Vista wth 2 GB memory.
If you need the productivity tools launched, there is an option to launch them with the Operating system. If you do that, you can blame Windows instead of Notes for a slow start up time.
Of course, if you are using Microsoft Office, you can turn off the background launch of the Productivity Tools completely.
