can we get a "please stand by while loading options list" window that pops up to
let us know that something is, indeed, happening?
Running "fpc -i" and "fpc -h" takes on recent machines less than 30ms.
Something eats a lot of time. Probably the creation of hundreds of
controls.
This is a 450MHz SPARC on my desktop, which is probably about as slow as
anybody will come across (note: unless running as a Qemu guest):
$ time fpc -i >/dev/null
real 0m0.028s
$ time fpc -h >/dev/null
real 0m0.137s
$ time ppcsparc -i >/dev/null
real 0m0.020s
$ time ppcsparc -h >/dev/null
real 0m0.112s
