You will need to give us a lot more info;

- what version of fltk are you using
- what host OS
- what tool chain
- what window manager / windowing system

One thing that occurs to me is that fltk-2 can be slow to start
initially if it is loading in a lot of fonts and so forth (it seems to
load its fonts differently from fltk-1.x versions).
If so, try fltk-1.1 or fltk-1.3 and see how you get on, or configure
fltk-2 to use simpler font options.

I mainly use fltk-1.3 now, and do not see responses anywhere near as
slow as you describe.

There are quite a range of performance analysis tools available these
days that will monitor your code as it runs and provide details of how
long each part is taking; it might be informative to instrument your
code start-up sequence and see where the time is really going.
My own personal experience suggests that it is rarely inside fltk itself
- the time is mainly lost in system and support operations... But
without measuring this we can not know for certain.
