While others have answered this question, there's a way to get xemacs
to load instantly (if you have the memory). I run the following script
when starting fvwm95:

bin/fvwminit:
#!/bin/sh
<other programs>
xemacs -unmapped -eval '(gnuserv-start)' &


by having the following in my .fvwm2rc95

AddToFunc "InitFunction"
+                       "I" Exec bin/fvwminit


..and

AddToMenu "Utilities" "Utilities" Title
<stuff>
+ "XEmacs slave%mini-edit.xpm%"         Exec gnudoit "(make-frame-on-display \"$
DISPLAY\")"
