It shouldn't take a few minutes for dashboard to appear. if it takes that long you either have way too many widgets loaded or insufficient RAM.

Michael: Hasn't everything been sort of discovered now by like Magellan and Cortez?

You need DashboardStarter. Download it and throw it in your login startup items. Unlike Dashboard Kickstart, it runs once and gets out - instead of running in the background, consuming memory and CPU time.

dashboardstarter is the better option (have tried them both); simple, unobtrusive.
