I saw another post complaining of the same symptoms in past week
(your's too?). I also am running a laptop (Sony VAIO, 750MHz) and
as you can see below it took about 11 seconds to load to the blank

This time reflects the second invocation, not the first (it was near
25 seconds). I have trimmed the spell checker file and I'm using
the XFce desktop if that makes a difference.
That's the sort of speed I got with FC 2. Having done a clean install of
FC3 the performance has fallen through the floor.
