It is after the login that things really slow down.  To get to the login
takes 30 secs, a bit slow.

I ran bootchart.  it seems the only way to retrieve the file it creates is
to open nautilus as root, gksudo nautilus.  Not sure what to make of the
file and not sure how to upload it.  I can save a copy but can not see it
unless running gksudo as root owns it.
