I think your real question is: How do I get emacs to start faster?

If so, the standard solution is to run emacs as a server (e.g. gnuserv) and
only start the server once per session.  My emacs server process typically
runs for months at a time, so whether it takes 1 or 10 seconds to start
no longer
matters.
