Hi Ralf,
> It's "just" running slowly.
Is the slowness with all actions of the program, e.g. redrawing,
responding to a mouse click, etc. Or is it just long pauses now and
again? If the latter then my guess is the program is hung whilst timing
out waiting for something which is normally ‘instant’.

I think you'll find options -f and -tt useful, especially if you can
observe the output during a hang. Tapping enter in the strace's
terminal to put in a marker at interesting points is also handy.

This could well be normal, polling behaviour.
