The burn tool Brasero in F24 needs extremly long time until it is completely started and it's desktop window appers.

[Joachim Backes]

Starting brasero in F24 takes about 40 (fourty!!) seconds until it's 
window appears on the screen. Until this moment, one CPU is completely 
busy (100%). Starting it a second time, the startup time is shorter and 
takes only about 1 sec.

The ldd command for /usr/bin/brasero lists 128 libs.

This happens with brasero-3.12.1-4.fc24.x86_64.

Anybody sees this too?

Takes about 20 seconds on a very old laptop.  Everything is slow to start on this
system....so it seems normal to me.  I started it from a KDE session on the konsole
command line.

It started much faster the second time.  I guess needed libs were not flushed.

Is it going through discovering hardware and capabilities, or is it just
loading up software?

I remember one of mine being very slow on the very first run of the
program, for that kind of reason (old system installation, though).
Always wanted to interrogate the hardware, and had to find it, first,
too.

I am curious at why things are so slow with that kind of thing.  My
first real personal computer was a 16 MHz CPU, my current one is about 2
GHz, and is not proportionally faster.  Lots of these library files are
only small things, so I don't lay the blame just on hard drive speed,
yet you try to run any big program and you spend an annoying amount of
time looking at some loading screen before you can use it.  LibreOffice
and Gimp come to mind.

Need to pipe output of cat through confirmation prompt, perhaps a
catpcha...   ;-)

Hi Ed,

seems to be comparable with my issue. I started brasero not from a KDE 
session, but inside a gnome3 session. My board has 4 Intel cores, each 
with 2.5 GHz. Seems not be a memory problem, because 
gnome-system-monitor did not point out a memory overloeading, only one 
fully running CPU core.

I agree that if started a second time, the libs had not been flushed. 
That is my impression too.

Thanks for your remarks.

Kind regards

Joachim Backes
