perhaps investing in an ssd drive for your operating system and gimp will
suffice.  Below is the time from requesting load to mouse clicking on the
kill button.

15:32 Crash: ~/Documents > time gimp

(gimp:9740): GLib-WARNING **: goption.c:2168: ignoring no-arg,
optional-arg or filename flags (8) on option of type 0

real    0m3.919s
user    0m1.668s

I don't see *any* problem in gimp's load time.
