Here is a strace of nautilus while starting up. I started strace manually after logging in in gdm, so it may not be totally complete.
Anyway, it seems there are lot of files that nautilus is opening but are not there. This includes locale stuff and icons. I'm not sure if this is causing the slow down. Definitely it does not make it faster. ** Attachment added: "strace_nautilus.txt.gz" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10352989/strace_nautilus.txt.gz -- [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
