I use '(desktop-save-mode 1)', so even I do not put 'require' it is
too long wait when Emacs loading as I have many files opened with
several different file types (for all of them loaded appropriated
major mode)...

Some times I use code like this:

(eval-after-load 'grep
  '(progn
     (add-to-list 'grep-find-ignored-directories "build" t)
     (add-to-list 'grep-find-ignored-directories "dist" t)
     (add-to-list 'grep-find-ignored-directories "lib" t)

     (when (boundp 'grep-find-ignored-files)
       (add-to-list 'grep-find-ignored-files "*TAGS")
       (add-to-list 'grep-find-ignored-files "GPATH")
       )
     ))

to prevent from loading grep.el at sturtup.
