Ever since the last KDE update (3.5), when I log in there is this ~45

Is there a way to find out what it's hanging up on?
You're in luck (maybe). I have a new installation. It was not hanging.
Then I installed webcore-fonts. Now it hangs.
Sounds like it may be related to a problem I read about on the Mandriva
Cooker (equivalent to Rawhide) mailing list. The problem could be
upstream in or related to fc-cache. Look at
http://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=20461
I'm not sure if this is believable or not. I don't have webcore-fonts
installed, so that couldn't be it.
I checked through .fonts and deleted a weird font I had downloaded, no
effect.
Then, upon watching KDE appear, it seemed that the first thing to appear
after the "hang" was Klipper, so I looked in Klipper and deleted the
history.
Now, there's no delay!
It may not have been the history itself per se, but perhaps something
about how Klipper works that caused this after the update(?!),
