And the I/O problem comes from the hundreds/thousands of small files
that are inefficiently read. The amount of transferred data is not
that much that it would take more than 2-4s to read on modern even
laptop hard drives, if the data would be sequentially available in a
one big chunk.

So if gconf used sqlite or something similar rather than 
~/.gconf/blah/blah/blah/%gconf.xml, that would improve login times a lot?
Sounds like that would be a good idea to me :-) (might not know what I'm 
talking about though, just sayin...)

[reposting to the list as I accidentally didn't to begin with, sorry Timo]
