[Bug 93447] Launcing programs from gnome is very slow.

[Rick Coupland]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome

Ubuntu 6.10-desktop-i386 with latest updates as of March 18, 2007.
Motherboard is Asus M2NPV-VM
CPU is AMD Athlon 64 3500+
Samsung HD160JJ SATA hard drive

Running any X application is very slow.  This is true whether it is being run from a desktop icon, a menu
or GNOME Terminal.  It take 10-20 seconds to start even the smallest program.  Running non-X applications
is very fast.

I had previously installed 6.06 .1-desktop-AMD64 on the same hardware
and did not see this problem.

** Affects: meta-gnome2 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
