Version:            (using KDE 4.3.4)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Upgraded to KDE 4.3.4 from Kubuntu PPA, slow down in transition from
Ksplash (KDE logo stage) to desktop when there are more than 1 activity
in workspace.

* Problematic behaviour: KDE start is delayed by about 10 seconds in splash screen (in final stage, when KDE logo is displayed).
* Expected behaviour: KDE logo during splash disappears even before it is fully unblured.

- With more than 1 activity, I change the splash screen to SimpleSmall,
I can access the desktop in same the position as KDE icon (SimpleSmall
splash has nothing fancy but only a black progress bar). Still have to
wait 10-15s for it to blur out. When the splash's black progress bar is
filled, the log in sound is played. Then I try to disable login sound,
no luck, still the extra 10-15s compare to 4.3.3.

Reproducible steps:
- kquitapp plasma-desktop; mv ~/.kde/share/config/plasma-desktop* ; logout then login; add 1 more activity; logout then login.
- Create a new user account, create 1 more activity; logout and then login.

$ lsb_release -rd

Some days ago I've tried to work with 12 activities (two monitor and six
virtual desktop means exactly 12 activities plus some extra autocreated
due to another reported bug). I've noticed a slowdown of the login too.
(I've experienced it on trunk)

May you try to reproduce it with a new user account?

I have this extra 10-15s from the splash (at KDE logo stage) to the
desktop even for a new user account, no plasmoids, merely 2 activities
on the second login.

I asked in KDE forums, but 2 replies so far on Debian, openSUSE and Arch
couldn't reproduce it.

Of course, old or new account is the same :-)

Closing for lack of feedback. Please feel free to reopen this report if
you can still reproduce this with KDE 4.8.3 or later.
