Updates to the .desktop files.(I may be talking from the rear though... that is a guess...)

How many seconds of difference is there between the RH menu and the
stock GNOME menu?
My system:
Pentium 3 667mhz. 768 MB of 133 SDRAM. Latest Rawhide (3 February... test carried out after full update at 3pm UK time...)
Testing: try one menu type, reboot, try other. Wait til everything is loaded before trying. timing method: 1 elephant, 2 elephant, 3 elephant. (Sorry... that loses this 'test' alot of credibility...)
1. Combined menu: Approx 7 seconds on a cold boot.
2. Default gnome-menu: immediate. 0 seconds on cold boot.
3. after logging out and logging back in without a reboot, the combined menu still takes around 1.5 seconds.
These times feel faster than it was taking a few days before my first post. (I mentioned I felt a speed up a few days prior to that email...). And the system is frozen while the combined menu does its thing.
