Subject: sleep? SLEEP?!?!?!?!

I've just found out why pine takes so long to startup and close down.
It is not because it is waiting for mailbox-access.
It is not because my machine is slow.
It is not because it is cracking passwords.
It is not because it is calculating mandelbrots.
It is not because it ...

No!! It is because it is sleep()ing!

Maybe it was an idea to make a no-sleep variable.
Or only display important messages (It's the reversed oneline-messages
that has a min-display-time attached to it).
Disabling (setting min-display-time to 0) 5 of the messages changed
pine's startup+closedown time from 7 to 2 seconds. So now it is just
as fast as elm.

  Now I just have to find out how to redesign the key-mapping....

I tried to implement this "min-display-time" but cannot see any difference.
Is there a certain place in .pinerc that this line should be inserted?
