Holy COW! That guy nailed it! As much as I *love* network manager, I never *suspected* it at all.
Here are my benchmarks on my desktop computer. It uses a DHCP wired network interface. ==== with network-manager ===== splash start to login ready: 32.48 seconds login to fully loaded*: 51.07 seconds ==== without network-manager, no network interface configured ==== splash start to login ready: 31.30 seconds (not significative) login to fully loaded*: 34.44 seconds! ==== without network-manager, DHCP interface configured manually ==== splash start to login ready: 32 seconds (not significative) login to fully loaded*: 34 seconds! *: no hdd scratching and all panel applets loaded There needs to be some serious profiling done here. -- [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
