Presumably this is because for each extcap utility present in the extcap
folder, Wireshark will launch it to retrieve the preferences supported and
their default values. I'm not sure we can easily win time here (but I will
let extcap experts comment).
That's one of the reasons why I put the extcap utilities as optional in
Windows installer.
