Chain Rattle at Start-Up

I know this is a very common ailment, and if my Boxster sits for more than a week, I'll get the 1 second chain rattle at first start. I don't know if/when it should be addressed, as the car has less than 40K miles. I do have a quick question related to this however.

If I quickly bump the engine over a few times without starting it (not sure if that will work or not), will that pressurize the system enough to mitigate/eliminate the rattle at start-up?
