EntityFramework CF and Pre-Generate Views

I want to reduce startup-time by using Pre-Generate Views as described on the following link: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb896240.aspx

Can I use Pre-Generate Views in Code First approach and how?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

EF Power Tools Beta 3 includes pre-generating views for Code First, as you can see at the bottom of this blog post

EF Power Tools CTP1 contain feature called Optimize Entity Data Model which should be equivalent to pre-generating views for EDMX.

looks like Pre-generated views are not supported by Code First (no precompiled queries in EF http://blogs.msdn.com/b/adonet/archive/2011/03/02/ef-4-1-is-coming-dbcontext-api-amp-code-first-rtw.aspx ). Here you can find some performance tips for EF : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc853327.aspx You can however reverse your DbContext and extract the EDMX using the EF Power Tools, once done that you can tune your queries.

Unfortunately you can not use them in Code First.
