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...)
