If you start up Sage under a debugger then there are lots of non-trivial
computations done in module initializers. Do we really need to construct
some degree-20 polynomials every time Sage starts up? I don't think so.
If this sort of stupidity is occurring, it is no wonder there are
complaints of Sage starting slowly. For some people Sage is taking minutes
to start.
If I am understanding you correctly, it seems this problem I noticed on
!OpenSolaris is just a symptom of a more serious implementation issue,
which is the result of a lack of thought in the design of Sage.
