Hello,

It's true 20 seconds is quite a lot, but here are a few explanations :

- When you load a Wine app (provided there is no other wine app
running), Wine has to load itself before the app, which usually takes a
few seconds (unless you already launched it before -> some of Wine would
then be cached in the RAM/swap, or unless you have a fast CPU).

- Adobe reader is, afair, slow. Many alternatives are faster, and the
last time i fell on people speaking about windows PDF readers, some
adobe reader users were saying stuff like "it loads fast : only takes 10
seconds"...

What would help in knowing if you're having a problem with Wine or not
is trying to launch the notepad (possibly, make a clean wineprefix,
launch notepad once in order to get the files in the wineprefix created,
and then close it and launch it again to check the time Wine actually
takes to launch).

Also, you should, imo, try Evince or Kghostviewer instead of Adobe
Reader (especially since Adobe reader has a lot of security issues).
