I noticed that some core desktop applications (e.g. eog, gedit and others like gthumb) are calling stat64 on /etc/localtime 6150 times on shutdown. I couldn't dig any information on what causes that call, so I don't know where to start looking. Apparently it doesn't affect non-Gnome GTK+ apps such as Gimp, qalculate or Synaptic. Something interesting is that running eog with no arguments and the quitting the application will yield the 6150 calls. However, passing one or more images on the command line adds 6150 for each image that ends up being opened. In other words, if you pass 4 images but only open one, you get 12300 calls. If you open 3, you get 24600. Same for gedit, only that it always opens all passed files. It doesn't need mentioning that this really slows downs said applications. I actually perceived the slow down and that's what led me to trace the application. Anyone interested in helping me diagnose this? I'm using Debian/unstable's own idea of Gnome 2.20.x.
