But the installation of this machine is pretty old now (and it is a long time, several years, that it is running Sid).

This does not seem to be the problem. I thought I pinpointed the problem to be gnome-keyring. Sadly, it is not uninstallable, because libgnome-keyring0 depends on it, and many packages depend on this one in turn. I then chmod -x /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon, without more success. If I look at the processes start time, I can see esd is starting 3 minutes(!) after a batch of gconf, gnome-session, and dbus. Then, it again takes a long time. Then again 3 minutes later, bonobo, gnome-smproxy and all the other gnome processes are started.
