Performance (wasRe: control-center 2.13.90 released)

[Christian Fredrik Kalager Schaller <uraeus linuxrising org>]

Hi,
Do we have a general performance problem currently? My Fedora Rawhide
(FC5) desktop is slow as hell atm. I thought at first it was a
distribution/development edition issue, but talking to people running
Dapper at the office they are experiencing the same. 

One example, starting Totem for the first time takes about 30 seconds on
my system now. Stopping and restarting totem multiple times lets me get
that down to around 8-10 seconds.
