I've noticed two annoying issues in f8t3.

1. Applications seems to take quite a while to 'appear' on the desktop.
After clicking an application on the panel (gedit, gnome-terminal, etc)
it takes about 10 secs for them to appear on the desktop.

2. Evolution (particularly compose) seems to 'pause' for 10 seconds or
so every now and then and it becomes unresponsive.  Makes typing emails
a pain in the bum (and I've seen it three times in this short email.)

I'm going to bz these, but we wondering if others have seen this too.
I've sometimes seen stuff like that happen with slightly busted
networking or something, i.e. strace -f gedit from a terminal and see if
it is blocking a long time on /tmp/.ICE-unix/XXXX and compare startup
time of apps before after after deleting /tmp/.ICE-unix/XXXX

There's a big pause at this point.  Is this what you expect?

What's 10 pointing at? Go back to the open/connect.

Possibly something's trying to do a DNS lookup, and timing out (that would give ten seconds, or a higher multiple).
