This was never a problem to my knowledge. I can imagine that some odd
bug might have caused something like this under some odd conditions in
some early release. I have had no reports of such a problem.

I think you must be mistaken.  This would only happen with en extremely
sub-optimal database design. The only way that all of the objects would get
loaded on startup would be if all of your oibjects were contained in the
root object. Even then, only object references would get loaded, not
the object data,

They both work as far as I know.
