Bug Description
The startup speed in Ubuntu Software Center has been greatly improved. It is now usable in 6-7 seconds on my PC. However, the last four seconds is spent waiting for the front page to appear.
Very often, I know exactly why I'm opening the software center and I'm going to enter a search phrase. If I was able to do that even while the contents were loaded, then I the real startup time would be more than halfed, which would be very good.

Thanks for your bugreport.
That is a good suggestion, not sure how hard/easy this is to implement though.
