If you use Menu ==> Settings ==> Menu ==> Restart, you will notice it takes a little while to start up.
After a while, the progress bar starts loading, and then it stutters halfway through. (The stutter is when the java framework takes over drawing the screen.)

If you restart the framework from the command line (or during the MrPI hack) you will go back to that screen, but it goes much faster (i.e. it starts loading almost immediately).

I've had my KT crash on me (running skipstone, some websites are complex and crash everything somehow). It has the same effect of restarting the framework, not a complete reboot.



So, is it rebooting, or just restarting the framework?
Just re-starting the framework.

Sometimes that's ok. Other times, even after the framework has restarted, the Kindle remains slow and relatively unresponsive until a proper restart is done.
