Ok, so it may be normal, but I can't believe it is "right". It just
doesn't make sense...
I still do not quite get what problem the OP is having.
Slowness in and of itself is not necessarily a technical problem.
If the OP has a slow cpu old computer, with (perhaps) a
small amount of RAM and a with (perhaps) slow (4200RPM)
disk drive, then it is going to take a while to finish initializing
all the daemons and hardware until the UI can respond to
user. Also, having a small amount of swap or no swap space
could make things a lot worse :), some apps might not even
start, let alone run.
I hope the OP tells us more about his HW specs and swap size.
It's older, but not that old... Dual core intel @ 2GHz, 3GB DDR2 ram.
The hard drive activity stops after the initial login so I don't think
that's a factor. Not sure about swap but it's the default from a Live
Workstation install.
I'm not actually sure what's going on.... After login I get a dark
textured screen with mouse cursor only. After I wake the screen up
after going into dpms I get the gnome-shell "lock screen" and after
unlocking I get a full desktop. It's really weird like gnome-shell is
loading but not showing itself until after a lock/unlock cycle.

You might want to configure the screen locker (/usr/bin/mate-screensaver).
My DT is Mate, so I will show how I configure the screen saver from the
Mate DT :
click on
System-> Preferences->Look and Feel->ScreenSaver
You should see
Activate Screensaver when computer is idle (and a sliding bar to select
the idle time)
Lock Screen when Screensaver is Active (If this is checked, you might
want to uncheck
it or increase the time which is considered idle by gnome)
